Question

Suppose a simple random sample of size

n=1000

is obtained from a population whose size is

N=1,500,000

and whose population proportion with a specified characteristic is

p=0.54.

Complete parts​ (b) through​ (c) below.

 

(b) What is the probability of obtaining
x=560
or more individuals with the​ characteristic?
 
​P(x≥560​)=
​(Round to four decimal places as​ needed.)
 
​(c) What is the probability of obtaining
x=510
or fewer individuals with the​ characteristic?
 
​P(x≤510​)=
​(Round to four decimal places as​ needed.)
