Reconsider Exercise 11.8.20. Describe how the probability that ((p(vector) Kayla p(vector) Jose > 0) would change
Question:
Reconsider Exercise 11.8.20. Describe how the probability that ((p(vector)Kayla − p(vector)Jose > 0) would change if:
a. The sample sizes were larger.
b. Kayla’s probability of successfully making a free throw was larger.
Data from Exercise 11.8.20
Suppose that a basketball player named Jose makes 60% of his free throws, and Kayla makes 70% of her free throws. Each player attempts 100 free throws at the end of practice one day. Regard these as independent random samples for each player. They plan to calculate the difference in their sample proportions of successfully made free throws, p(vector)Kayla − p(vector)Jose.
