A. Directions: Check whether the sample is in each problem is sufficiently large enough to use the

Central Limit Theorem in normal approximation.

4. Professors from an organization for private colleges and universities reported that more than 6% of

professors attended a national convention in the past year. To test this claim, a researcher surveyed 80

professors and found that 5 attended a national convention in the past year.

this year have been involved in at least one traffic accident in the last five years. Believing it was too

large, an advisory group decided to investigate this claim. A sample of 200 traffic accidents this year

showed that 56 persons were also involved in another accident in the last five years. 6. A researcher

1. A Public Information Survey investigated whether the majority of 40% of adults supported a tax

increase to help fund the local school system. Out of this, a random sample of 300 showed that 113

agreed with the tax increase.

2. It is believed that in the coming election, 65% of the voters in the Province of Kaunlaran will vote for

the administrative candidate for governor. Out of 1,170 randomly selected voters, 640 indicated that

3. Suppose that in the past, 42% of all adults favored capital punishment. Do we have reason to believe

that this proportion has increased if in a random sample of 150 adults, 80 favored capital punishment?
