Solution Steps

Step 1: Calculate the Mean \( \mu_{\hat{p}} \)

The mean of the sample proportion \( \mu_{\hat{p}} \) is given by the population proportion \( p \). Therefore, we have:

\[ \mu_{\hat{p}} = p = 0.64 \]

Step 2: Calculate the Standard Deviation \( \sigma_{\hat{p}} \)

The standard deviation of the sample proportion \( \sigma_{\hat{p}} \) is calculated using the formula:

\[ \sigma_{\hat{p}} = \sqrt{\frac{p(1 - p)}{n}} \]

Substituting the values \( p = 0.64 \) and \( n = 65 \):

\[ \sigma_{\hat{p}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.64 \times (1 - 0.64)}{65}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.64 \times 0.36}{65}} \approx 0.0595 \]

Final Answer

The results are:

  • Mean \( \mu_{\hat{p}} = 0.6400 \)
  • Standard Deviation \( \sigma_{\hat{p}} = 0.0595 \)

Thus, the final answers are:

\[ \boxed{\mu_{\hat{p}} = 0.6400} \] \[ \boxed{\sigma_{\hat{p}} = 0.0595} \]
