A bag contains chips of which 27.5 percent are blue. A random sample of 5 chips will be selected one at a time and with replacement. What are the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample proportion of blue chips for samples of size 5 ?

Answer:

[tex]\mu _{\hat{p}}= 0.275\\\\ \sigma_{\hat{p}}=0.1997[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample proportion([tex]\hat{p}[/tex]) is given by :-

[tex]\mu _{\hat{p}}=p\\\\ \sigma_{\hat{p}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

, where p= Population proportion and n = sample size.

Let p be the proportion of blue chips.

As per given , we have

p= 0.275

n= 5

Now , the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample proportion of blue chips for samples of size 5 will be :

[tex]\mu _{\hat{p}}= 0.275\\\\ \sigma_{\hat{p}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{ 0.275(1- 0.275)}{5}}\\\\=0.19968725547\approx0.1997[/tex]

Hence, the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample proportion of blue chips for samples of size 5 are :

[tex]\mu _{\hat{p}}= 0.275\\\\ \sigma_{\hat{p}}=0.1997[/tex]

The standard deviation and mean is

[tex]\\\mu = 0.275\\\sigma = 0.1997[/tex]

Given that ;

No. of blue chips contain in a bag = P = 27.5 % = 0.27

No. of chips random selected at a time with replacement = n = 5

We know that the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample proportion  (p) is given by :-

[tex]\mu\-_p[/tex] = p

    = 0.275

[tex]\sigma_p[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{p (1-p)}{n} }[/tex]

Where p= Population proportion and n = sample size.

Let p be the proportion of blue chips.

As per given , we have

p= 0.275

n= 5

= [tex]\sqrt{\frac{0.275 ( 1 - 0.275)}{5} }[/tex]

= 0.1997

Now , the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample proportion  of blue chips for samples of size 5 will be :

Hence, the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample proportion of blue chips for samples of size 5 are :

[tex]\mu = 0.275\\\sigma = 0.1997[/tex]
