Suppose that 40% of all U.S. employees contribute to a retirement plan(p = 0.40).(a) In a random sample of 100 employees, what is the approximate probability that at least half of those in the sample contribute to a retirement plan? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
(b)Suppose you were told that at least 66 of the 100 employees in a sample from your state contribute to a retirement plan. Would you thinkp = 0.40 for your state? Explain. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)If p = 0.40, the probability that at least 66 of the 100 employees in a sample from the state contribute to a retirement plan is
. Thus, it seems unlikely that p = 0.40 for the state.
