Part 1
a.
100
0.57,
The probability is

that fewer than half of the adults in the sample will watch newsvideos.
(Round to four decimal places as needed.)
Part 2
b.
500
0.57,
The probability is

that fewer than half of the adults in the sample will watch newsvideos.
(Round to four decimal places as needed.)
Part 3
c.
Discuss the effect of sample size on the sampling distributionof the proportion in general and the effect on the probabilities inparts (a) and (b).
Choose the correct answer below.
A.
The probabilities in parts (a) and (b) are the same.Increasing the sample size does not change the samplingdistribution of the proportion.
B.Increasing the sample size by a factor of 5 increases thestandard error by a factor of
5.
This causes the sampling distribution of the proportion tobecome more concentrated around the true population proportionof
0.57
and increases the probability in part (b).
C.Increasing the sample size by a factor of 5 decreases thestandard error by a factor of
5.
This causes the sampling distribution of the proportion tobecome more concentrated around the true population proportionof
0.57
and decreases the probability in part (b).
