Simple random sample from the population2. A large enough sample so that the central limit theorem applies. The sample is large if both np and n(1 - p) are greater than or equal to 10.Then the sample proportion p is distributed approximately normalwith mean m p = p and standard deviation sp = p(1 - p) . np ~ N( p, p(1-p)/n )Confidence Interval for pGoal: Estimate the unknown population proportion pPoint Estimate: Sample proportion pSituation: While p should be close to p, it is very unlikely that p will equal p exactly.Therefore, to the point estimate we subtract and add a margin of error to create a C% confidence interval estimate for p.Assumptions1. Simple random sample2. Both the number of successes in the sample np and the number of failures in the sample n(1-p) are greater than or equal to 10.Confidence IntervalThen a C% confidence interval for p is:p + z* p(1 - p)/nThe z* values are found in the table on page 340.Significance Test for pWe hypothesize that the population proportion p equals some specified value p0 and we want to use the data in a sample to test whether this null hypothesis is appropriate or whether we should reject the null hypothesis in favor of some alternative hypothesis.Null hypothesis H0: p = p 0Ha: p > p 0Alternative hypothesis Ha: p < p 0Ha: p = p 0Tests of Significance for pThe point estimate of p is the sample proportion p, and if we have asimple random sample and if both np and n(1 - p) are greater than 10,then the sampling distribution of p is:p ~ N( p, p(1 - p)/n )Then by the Z-score transformation we obtain the standard normalstatisticZ = p - p p(1 - p)/nThis statistic is a candidate for the test statistic.Tests of Significance for pHowever, since the population proportion p is unknown this statistic cannot be calculated. We need to replace p with some estimate. The logical estimate is to use the sample proportion p. However, if we use the sample proportion p, then the Z statistic will always equal 0.Since we carry out the test assuming the null hypothesis is true (H0: p = p0) then we estimate p with the hypothesized value p0.Significance Test for pHowever, since the population proportion p is unknown, it mustbe estimated. If we use the sample proportion p, then the Z statistic will always equal 0.Since we carry out the test assuming the null hypothesis is true(H0: p = p0) then we estimate p with the hypothesized value p0.Hence if we have a simple random sample and if both np0 > 10 and n(1 - p0 ) > 10, then the test statistic isZ = p - p0 p0(1 - p0)/nSignificance Test for pAssumptions:1. Simple random sample2. Both the hypothesized number of successes np0 and the hypothesized number of failures n(1 - p0 ) are greater than or equal to 10.Z = p - p0 p0(1 - p0)/nGeneral Significance Testing Procedure1.
