Question 2
What type of car is more popular among college students, American or foreign? One hundred fifty-nine college students were randomly sampled and each was asked which type of car he or she prefers. A computer package was used to generate the printout below for the proportion of college students who prefer American automobiles.
SAMPLE PROPORTION = .396226
SAMPLE SIZE = 159
UPPER LIMIT = .46418
LOWER LIMIT = .331125
Is the sample large enough for the interval to be valid?
◦ No, the population of college students is not normally distributed.
◦ Yes, since
n
and
n
are both greater than 15.
◦ No, the sample size should be at 10% of the population.
◦ Yes, since
n > 30.
