We would like to knowthe probability that an SRS of size 2500 would come within plus orminus 2 percentage points of this true value.
    1. If p-hat is the proportion of the sample who did use a creditcard to pay for groceries, what is the mean of p-hat? (2points)

    2. What is the standard deviation of p-hat? (2 points)

    3. Explain why you can use the formula for the standard deviationof p-hat in this setting.(check that the population is at least 10times larger than the sample) (2 points)
    4. Check that you can use the normal approximation for thedistribution of p-hat.(2 points)
