Question
A study found that 1 out of 200 adult males have green eyes. If a random sample of 400
adult males is obtained, is the sampling of the sample proportion of males that have green
eyes approximately normal?
Yes, the sample size is greater than 10% of the population.
Yes, the sample was randomly selected
No, because np < 10
No, because nq < 10

Historical records show that 80% of test subjects pass the test. To pass the test, a subject must exactly repeat all the digits in the number after two hours. A random sample of 625 people to take the memory test is going to be chosen. Let p be the proportion of people in the sample who pass the test. Answer the following. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) Find the mean of P. 0 (b) Find the standard deviation of p. 0 (c) Compute an approximation for P(P >0.84), which is the probability that more than 84% of the people in the sample pass the test.
