(−1)" (2n+1)(x+4)”
calculate Z, defined as follows:
n=0
(5 - 1)√n
if the interval of convergence is (a, b), then Z = sin a + sin b
if the interval of convergence is (a, b), then Z = cos asin b
if the interval of convergence is (a, b], then Z = sin a + cos b
if the interval of convergence is [a, b], then Z = cos a + cos b
Then the value of Z is

You want to obtain a sample to estimate the proportion of a population that possess a particular genetic marker. Based on previous evidence, you believe approximately p∗=11% of the population have the genetic marker. You would like to be 90% confident that your estimate is within 0.5% of the true population proportion. How large of a sample size is required?n = (Wrong: 10,603)
Do not round mid-calculation. However, you may use a critical value accurate to three decimal places.
2. [20] Let {X1,..., Xn} be a random sample from Ber(p), where p = (0, 1). Consider two
estimators of the parameter p:
1
p=X_and_p=
n+2
(x+1).
For each of p and p, find the bias and MSE.
