Hi ,
You are receing this e-mail because you indicated when you signed up for Grant's Updates that you are taking Stat 1000 this term. If in fact, you are not taking Stat 1000, please reply to this e-mail and let me know, and I will fix that.
Note that my final exam prep seminar is coming up this Saturday, Dec. 4. Please go to www.grantstutoring.com for more info and to register. Click the "Seminars" button.
Throughout the term I will send you all sorts of tips to help you study and learn the course. You probably already have done so, but, if not, I strongly recommend you purchase my Basic Stats 1 Study Book. You will find it a great resource to learn the course. I pride myself in explaining things in clear, everyday language. I also provided numerous examples of all the key concepts with step-by-step solutions. You can order my book at UMSU Digital Copy Centre at University Centre at UM campus. They make the book to order so please allow one business day. The book is split into two volumes and each volume costs $45 + tax.
If you ever want to look back over a previous tip I have sent, do note that all my tips can be found in my archive. Click this link to go straight to my archive:
Tips about Inferences for Proportions
These tips apply to HW12 for those of you doing the distance/online version of the course. I assume the rest of you will also have similar questions on your next assignment.
Study Lesson 10 in my book and also be sure to study Lesson 6 again, primarily the section where I talk about the Distribution of the Sample Proportion, p-hat towards the end of Lesson 6 to prepare for this topic.
I think you will find my examples in Lessons 6 and 10 are sufficient to help you with anything on this assignment.
