In a survey, 600 mothers and fathers were asked about the importance of sports for boys and girls. Of the parents interviewed, 70% said the genders are equal and should have equal opportunities to participate in sports.

Question

B. Using the normal approximation without the continuity correction, sketch the probability distribution curve for the distribution of p-hat. Shade equal areas on both sides of the mean to show an area that represents a probability of .95, and label the upper and lower bounds of the shaded area as values of p-hat (not z-scores). Show your calculations for the upper and lower bounds. (3 points)

C. Considering the sketch in part B, the shaded area shows a .95 probability of what happening? In other words, what does the probability of .95 represent? (2 points)

D. Using the normal approximation, what's the probability a randomly drawn sample of parents of size 600 will have a sample proportion between 67% and 73%? Draw a sketch of the probability curve, shade the area representing the probability you're finding, and label the z-scores that represent the upper and lower bounds of the probability you're finding. Don't use the continuity correction. (4 points)
