A news article estimated that only 4% of those ages 65 and older who prefer to watch the news, rather than to read or listen, watch the news online. This estimate was based on a survey of a large sample of adult Americans. Consider the population consisting of all adult Americans ages 65 and older who prefer to watch the news, and suppose that for this population the actual proportion who prefer to watch online is 0.04. (a) A random sample of n = 100 people will be selected from this population and p̂, the proportion of people who prefer to watch online, will be calculated. What are the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of p̂?
