suppose that many large samples are taken from a population, and the sample proportions center around 0.68. Which of the following is most likely to be the population parameter?
A. 0.48
B. 0.58
C. 0.68
D. 0.78


Answer :

The most likely population parameter is 0.68

What is sample proportion?

The sample proportion is a random variable: it varies from sample to sample in a way that cannot be predicted with certainty. Viewed as a random variable it will be written  P . It has a mean  μP  and a standard deviation  σP .

For large sample

The sample proportion is approximately normally distributed, with mean  μP=p

Suppose we have a population of 1000 people & we want to analyze it.so it is not possible for us to analyze such large population , so we take a small sample which is unbiased & represents the population. we choose a parameter on the basis of which we analyze them & it should be as low as possible for both the sample & population.

As it is mentioned above for large sample proportion is approximately as normally distributed so population parameter is also same as sample proportion = 0.68
