A local arts council has 200 members. The council president wanted to estimate the percent of its members who have had experience in writing grants. The president randomly selected 30 members and surveyed the selected members on their grant-writing experience. Of the 30 selected members, 12 indicated that they did have the experience. Have the conditions for inference with a one-sample z -interval been met

Yes the sample can be use to make inference

Step-by-step explanation:

The inference is possible if the conditions:

p*n > 10      and   q*n > 10

where p and q are the proportion probability of success and q = 1 - p

n is sample size

Then   p = 12 / 30  = 0,4         q =  1 - 0,4    q  =  0,6

And  p*n  =  0,4 * 30  = 12            12 > 10

And  q*n  = 0,6 * 30   = 18            18 > 10

Therefore with that sample the conditions to approximate the binomial distribution to a Normal distribution are met

To check the condition for inference with a one sample z-interval, we have to divide randomly selected member by total number of arts council.

No, the sample size is not less than 10% of the population size,

Given:

The total number of council member are 200.

The randomly selected members are 30 .

Calculate the ratio of randomly selected members and total number of council member.

Thus, No, the sample size is not less than 10% of the population size.
