Identify Proportion: Identify the proportion of newborns born more than 1 week before their due date.Proportion p = 20\% or 0.20.
Calculate Standard Deviation: Calculate the standard deviation of the sampling distribution for the proportion using the formula for the standard deviation of a sample proportion: p(1−p)/n, where p is the proportion and n is the sample size.n=20 (sample size).
Plug Values and Calculate: Plug the values into the formula and calculate the standard deviation.Standard deviation = 0.20(1−0.20)/20=0.20×0.80/20=0.16/20=0.008=0.089.
