Question

Suppose the probability is p = 0.32 that a person who purchases an instant lottery ticket wins money, and this probability holds for every ticket purchased. Consider different random samples of n = 34 purchased tickets. Let p̂ = sample proportion of winning tickets in a sample of 34 tickets.
