Answer

No, the probability will not be unusual as it is not less than 0.05.

Work Step by Step

p̂ = 450/600 = 0.75 To calculate $P(p̂ \geq 70)$, we need to find the z-score: $z = \frac{p̂ - μ_{p̂}}{σ_{p̂}}$ $= \frac{.75-.72}{0.0183}$ = 1.64 $P(z \geq 1.64) = 0.0.0505$, hence: $P(p̂ \geq 0.75) = 0.0505$
