B. Compute the z for the given word problem. 1. Newborn babies are more likely to be boys than girls. A random sample found 13,173 boys were born among 25,468 newborn children. The sample proportion of boys was 0.5172. 2. A politician claims that she will receive 60% of the votes in the upcoming election. Of a random sample of 200 voters, there were 100 who will surely vote for her.

defective. Suppose 300 bulbs are randomly selected, each are tested and
10 defectives bulbs are found. Compute the z for the given claim.
n= 74; p :

A. Compute the z for each given claim (po), observed proportion ( p ) and the sample size (n).
1. po= 10%, p = 30, n = 100
2. po = 0.12, p=0.32, n = 248
3. Po= 20%, p = .58, n= 312
