The development of viral hepatitis after a blood transfusion can cause serious complications for a patient. The article "Lack of Awareness Results in Poor Autologous Blood Transfusion" (Health Care Management, May 15, 2003) reported that hepatitis occurs in 7% of patients who receive blood transfusions during heart surgery. You can simulate sampling from the population of patients who receive blood transfusions using this applet. Do the following: 1. Change p to 0.07. 2. Change n to 30. 3. Click Draw Samples. Notice only one sample of 30 patients is drawn, and the "success" is having hepatitis. Your sample proportion might be bigger or smaller than 0.07. 4. You can click on Draw Samples several times to watch several samples be chosen, and several sample proportions plotted in blue in the sampling distribution at the bottom. Then change the number of samples chosen to 10,000 and click Draw Samples again.(f) Suppose that a new blood screening procedure is believed to reduce the incidence of hepatitis. Blood screened using this procedure is given to n = 200 randomly selected blood recipients. Only 6 of the 200 patients contract hepatitis. Recall that the hepatitis rate was given as 0.07. First, what is the typical distance between the sample proportion and 0.07 when n = 200? Give your answer to 5 decimal places. X
