Question
To find \(\hat{p}\) and \(\hat{q}\), we are using the formula for sample proportions. Given that \(n = 176\) and \(X = 83\), we can calculate:

\[
\hat{p} = \frac{X}{n} = \frac{83}{176}
\]

\[
\hat{q} = 1 - \hat{p}
\]

The problem asks to round the answers to three decimal places.

Calculation results:
- \(\hat{p} = 0.472\) (The given answer of 0.511 is incorrect).
- \(\hat{q} = 0.528\) (The given answer of 0.489 is incorrect).

The red 'X' next to each given answer indicates they are incorrect. Thus, ensure the calculations are correctly performed and rounded precisely to three digits.
