Question
I need help with this math problem

Transcribed Image Text:According to Reader's Digest, 45% of primary care doctors think their patients receive unnecessary medical care. Use the z-table.
a. Suppose a sample of 360 primary care doctors was taken. Show the sampling distribution of the proportion of the doctors who think their patients receive unnecessary
medical care.
E(p) =
0.45 (to 2 decimals)
(to 4 decimals)
b. What is the probability that the sample proportion will be within +0.03 of the population proportion? Round your answer to four decimals.
c. What is the probability that the sample proportion will be within ±0.05 of the population proportion? Round your answer to four decimals.
d. What would be the effect of taking a larger sample on the probabilities in parts (b) and (c)? Why?
The probabilities would increase
This is because the increase in the sample size makes the standard error, o,, larger
