Q. Multiple choice: Select the best answer for Exercises 4343 to 4646 . Exercises 4343 to 4545 refer to the following setting. The magazine Sports Illustrated asked a random sample of 750750 Division I college athletes,
  1. Calculate mean: Calculate the mean of the sampling distribution of the sample proportion p^\hat{p}. The mean of the sampling distribution of the sample proportion is equal to the population proportion, which is given as 30%30\% or 0.300.30.
  2. Calculate standard deviation: Calculate the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample proportion p^\hat{p}. The standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample proportion is calculated using the formula: σp^=p(1p)n\sigma_{\hat{p}} = \sqrt{\frac{p(1 - p)}{n}} where pp is the population proportion and nn is the sample size.
  3. Perform calculation: Perform the calculation using the values provided.\newlinep=0.30p = 0.30 (population proportion)\newlinen=750n = 750 (sample size)\newlineσp^=0.30×(10.30)/750\sigma_{\hat{p}} = \sqrt{0.30 \times (1 - 0.30) / 750}\newlineσp^=0.30×0.70/750\sigma_{\hat{p}} = \sqrt{0.30 \times 0.70 / 750}\newlineσp^=0.21/750\sigma_{\hat{p}} = \sqrt{0.21 / 750}\newlineσp^=0.00028\sigma_{\hat{p}} = \sqrt{0.00028}\newlineσp^=0.0167\sigma_{\hat{p}} = 0.0167
