Now assume it is true that 60.98% of all words in the English language contain the letter "e" (as given in the source above).  Generate a simulated distribution of 1000 sample statistics for simulated samples of 20 words from the English language.  In the space below, include a copy-and-paste of your simulated distribution.  You need to be using the "Proportion of Successes" option, and that is the picture you need to copy and paste.

Question

Now assume it is true that 60.98% of all words in the English language contain the letter "e" (as given in the source above).  Generate a simulated distribution of 1000 sample statistics for simulated samples of 20 words from the English language.  In the space below, include a copy-and-paste of your simulated distribution.  You need to be using the "Proportion of Successes" option, and that is the picture you need to copy and paste.

Expert Solution
Step 1

The true proportion of words in the English language has the letter 'e'= 60.98%

Consider 1000 English common words 

Creating a simulated sample of 20 words from the 1000 common words

Follow-up Question
The sampling distribution shows sample proportions from
samples of size n = 35.
0.42 0.49 0.56 0.63 0.70 0.77 0.84 0.91
1) What does one dot on the sampling distribution represent?
Use appropriate notation.
2) Estimate the population proportion from the dotplot. Use
appropriate notation.
3) Use the distribution to estimate the standard error of the
sample proportions.
4) Using the sampling distribution, how likely is = 0.65?
A) Reasonably likely to occur from a sample of this size
B) Unusual but might occur occasionally
C) Extremely unlikely to ever occur
5) Using the sampling distribution, how likely is = 0.20?
A) Reasonably likely to occur from a sample of this size
B) Unusual but might occur occasionally
C) Extremely unlikely to ever occur
Use the following to answer the questions below:
Coca Cola took a sample of 100 bottles of Coke and found
that the average amount of sugar of that sample was 67
grams with a standard error of 1.8 grams.
