Multiple Choice
In a large statistics class,the professor has each student toss a coin 14 times and calculate the proportion of his or her tosses that were tails.The students then report their results,and the professor plots a histogram of these several proportions.Should a Normal model be used here?
A) A Normal model should not be used because the sample size,14,is larger than 10% of the population of all coins.
B) A Normal model should be used because the samples are random and independent.Also,the sample size,14,is less than 10% of the population.
C) A Normal model should not be used because the sample size is not large enough to satisfy the success/failure condition.For this sample size,np = 7 < 10.
D) A Normal model should be used because the 14 coin tosses can be thought of as a random sample of coin tosses and are fewer than 10% of the population of all coins.The success/failure condition is also satisfied because n = 14 ≥ 10.
E) A Normal model should not be used because the population distribution is not Normal.
