  1. AP StatisticsMonday, 24 March 2014 • OBJECTIVETSW investigate properties and characteristics of Sampling Distributions of Proportions. • Read pp. 461-466. Everyone needs a calculator.

  2. Sampling Distributions of Proportions

  3. The dotplot is a partial graph of the sampling distribution of all sample proportions of sample size 20. If I found all the possible sample proportions – this would be approximately normal! • Toss a penny 20 times and record the number of heads. • Calculate the proportion of heads & mark it on the dot plot on the board. What shape do you think the dot plot will have?

  4. Sampling Distribution • Is the distribution of possible values of a statistic from all possible samples of the same size from the same population • In the case of the pennies, it’s the distribution of all possible sample proportions (p) We will use: p for the population proportion and p-hat for the sample proportion

  5. Suppose we have a population of six people: Alice, Ben, Charles, Denise, Edward, & Frank What is the proportion of females? What is the parameter of interest in this population? Draw samples of two from this population. How many different samples are possible? 1/3 gender 6C2 =15

  6. Alice & Ben 0.5 Alice & Charles 0.5 Alice & Denise 1 Alice & Edward 0.5 Alice & Frank 0.5 Ben & Charles 0 Ben & Denise 0.5 Ben & Edward 0 Ben & Frank 0 Charles & Denise 0.5 Charles & Edward 0 Charles & Frank 0 Denise & Edward 0.5 Denise & Frank 0.5 Edward & Frank 0 Find the 15 different samples that are possible & find the sample proportion of the number of females in each sample. How does the mean of the sampling distribution (mp-hat) compare to the population parameter (p)? mp-hat = p Find the mean & standard deviation of all p-hats.

  7. These are found on the (yellow) formula chart! Formulas:

  8. Correction factor – multiply by Does the standard deviation of the sampling distribution equal the equation? NO - So – in order to calculate the standard deviation of the sampling distribution, we MUST be sure that our sample size is less than 10% of the population! WHY? We are sampling more than 10% of our population! If we use the correction factor, we will see that we are correct.

  9. Assumptions (Rules of Thumb) • Sample size must be less than 10% of the population (independence) • Sample size must be large enough to insure that a normal approximation can be used. np > 10 & n (1 – p) > 10

  10. Why does the second assumption insure an approximate normal distribution? Remember back to binomial distributions Suppose n = 10 & p = 0.1(probability of a success), a histogram of this distribution is strongly skewed right! np > 10 & n(1-p) > 10 insures that the sample size is large enough to have a normal approximation! Now use n = 100 & p = 0.1 (Now np > 10!) While the histogram is still strongly skewed right – look what happens to the tail!

  11. Suppose one student tossed a coin 200 times and found only 42% heads. Do you believe that this is likely to happen? np = 200(.42) = 84 & n(1-p) = 200(.58) = 116 Since both > 10, I can use a normal curve! Find m & s using the formulas. No – since there is approximately a 1% chance of this happening, I do not believe the student did this.

  12. Based on past experience, a bank believes that 7% of the people who receive loans will not make payments on time. The bank recently approved 200 loans. What are the mean and standard deviation of the proportion of clients in this group who may not make payments on time? Are assumptions met? What is the probability that over 10% of these clients will not make payments on time? Yes – np = 200(.07) = 14 n(1 - p) = 200(.93) = 186 Ncdf(0.10, 1E99, 0.07, 0.01804) = 0.0482

  13. Assume that 30% of the students at JVHS wear contacts. In a sample of 100 students, what is the probability that more than 35% of them wear contacts? Check assumptions! mp-hat = 0.3 & sp-hat = 0.045826 np = 100(0.3) = 30 & n(1-p) =100(0.7) = 70 Ncdf(0.35, 1E99, 0.3, 0.045826) = 0.1376
