Q1(6). Parents were asked if sports are equally important for boys and girls. Suppose that the proportion of parents who agree the equal importance in the population is actually 0.65. In a survey, of the 400 parents interviewed, 70% agreed that boys and girls should have equal opportunities to participate in sports. 1(2). Describe the sampling distribution of the sample proportion of parents who agree that boys and girls should have equal opportunities. 2(4). What is the probability of observing a sample proportion as large as or larger than the observed value $\hat{p} = 0.70$?

According to a recent study, 80% of American children (age 2-9) believe in Santa Claus. Suppose we obtain a random sample of 110 children in this age group and ask them whether or not they believe in Santa Claus. Answer the following: 1) Can the sampling distribution of p̂ be approximated by the normal distribution? no yes 2) What is the mean of the distribution of p̂? 3) What is the standard deviation of the distribution of p̂? 4) What is the probability that fewer than 96 of the children from the sample will respond that they believe in Santa Claus? (Round your answers to four decimal places when appropriate)
