According to the National Postsecondary Student Aid Study conducted by the U.S. Department of Education in 2008, 62% of graduates from public universities had student loans.
We randomly select 50 students at a time.
What is the mean of the distribution of sampling proportions? Do not round, and enter your answer as a proportion (decimal number) not a percentage.

Sagot :

The mean of the distribution sample is 0.62 and the standard error of the distribution sample is 0.069

What is Mean ?

Mean is the study of central tendency of a data set. The average value of the data points is the mean.

It is given that

The probability that the students have the student loan is  = 62% = 0.62

The probability that the students do not have student loan is

   1 - p

= 1 - 0.62

= 0.38

Total number of students is

n = 50

1) [tex]\rm \mu \;\hat p[/tex] = p = 0.62

2) [tex]\rm \sigma\hat p[/tex]  = [tex]\rm \sqrt {p ( 1 - p ) / n}[/tex]

=  [tex]\rm \sqrt {(0.62 * 0.38) / 50}[/tex]

= 0.069

Therefore the mean of the distribution sample is 0.62 and the standard error of the distribution sample is 0.069.
