Question
Let TT represent the population proportion of adult Americans who respond favorably
when asked about the president's job performance. Suppose that 50% of adult
Americans respond favorably when asked about the president's job performance, and
suppose you plan to take a simple random sample (SRS) of n adult Americans.
a. Use the Central Limit Theorem to calculate the standard deviation of the sampling
distribution of the sample proportion of adult Americans who respond favorably, for
each of the following values of n.
Round your answers to four decimal places.
When n = 600, standard deviation =

- Like father, like son: In 1906, the statistician Karl Pearson measured the heights of 1078 pairs of fathers and sons.

- The following data lists the ages of a random selection of actresses when they won an award in the category of Best Actress, along with the ages of actors when they won in the category of Best Actor. The ages are matched according to the year that the awards were presented. Complete parts (a) and (b) below. Actress (years) 31 29 34 28 34 26 28 Actor (years) 59 40 39 40 30 32 54 a. Use the sample data with a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that for the population of ages of Best Actresses and Best Actors, the differences have a mean less than 0 (indicating that the Best Actresses are generally younger than Best Actors).
