Question
Business Weekly conducted a survey of recent graduates from the top MBA programs. On the basis of the survey, assume that 65% of the recent graduates annual salary exceeds $75000. Suppose you take a simple random sample of 92 recent graduates.
Note: round all z scores to 2 decimal places and all other numbers to 4 decimal places.
Find the probability that more than 55% of the 92 recent graduates have an annual salary exceeding $75000.
Beyond representative sampling, what assumptions are needed to satisfy the requirements for this problem?
