1. The reported cancer rates for men ages 65 and older is 23%. Assume this estimate is the true population proportion of men ages 65 and older who have been diagnosed with some form of cancer. A SRS of 25 men ages 65 and older is taken. A. Calculate the probability that proportion of men ages 65 and older who have been diagnosed with some form of cancer is more than 0.30. a) 0.2033 b) 0.7967 c) 0.2236 d) This can't be done because n is not greater than 30 and we are not told that the variable is normally distributed. Ca ate the probability that proportion men ages 65 older who have been diagnosed with some form of cancer is more than 0.30 but less than 0.35. a) 1.7203 b) 0.1269 c) -0.1269 d) This can't be done because n is not greater than 30 and we are not told that the variable is normally distributed.
