Answer to Question #345599 in Statistics and Probability for Yasmin

Question

Find the finite population correction factor given the following:

a. N= 300, n= 50

b.

N= 2500, n= 100

C.

N = 150, n= 10

Answer 1

$FPC=\sqrt{\frac{N-n}{N-1}}.$

1. $FPC=\sqrt{\frac{300-50}{300-1}}=0.914$
2. $FPC=\sqrt{\frac{2500-100}{2500-1}}=0.979$
3. $FPC=\sqrt{\frac{150-10}{150-1}}=0.97$
