In a recent survey, the proportion of adults who indicated mystery as their favorite type of book was 0.325. Two simulations will be conducted for the sampling distribution of a sample proportion from a population with a true proportion of 0.325. Simulation A will consist of 1,500 trials with a sample size of 100. Simulation B will consist of 2,000 trials with a sample size of 50. Which of the following describes the center and variability of simulation A and simulation B?

Respuesta :

Option c) The centers will roughly be equal, and the variability of simulation A will be less than the variability of simulation B

According to the information given in the question,

A true proportion of 0.325 represents that the two simulations will be conducted for sampling proportions from a population

Simulation A -

Sample size - 100

Trials - 1500

Simulation B -

Sample size - 50

Trials - 2000

Now due to the relation of simulation A and simulation B, they are closely equal-

The total sample size of simulation A= 1500 x 100

= 150000

The total sample size of simulation B = 2000 x 50

= 100000

From the above calculations of simulations A and B, we can see that while comparing the,

Sample Size = Simulation A > Simulation B

Variability = Simulation B < Simulation B

Therefore, option c) The centers will roughly be equal, and the variability of simulation A will be less than the variability of simulation B is correct.
