Computational Thinking in Science and Math

Applications using Sample Proportions

Students will be able to:

Calculate and interpret the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of a sample proportion \(\hat p\)
Determine if the sampling distribution of \(\hat p\) is approximately Normal
Calculate and interpret the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution for a difference in sample proportions, \(\hat p_1 - \hat p_2\)
Determine if the sampling distribution of a difference in proportions, \(\hat p_1 - \hat p_2\) , is approximately Normal
Use a Normal distribution to calculate probabilities involving \(\hat p\) and \(\hat p_1 - \hat p_2\)
