p1^ = 0.26 , p2^ = 0.49
n = 1000
confidence interval
=(p1^ - p2^) z s.e
p1^ - p2^ = 0.26 -0.49 = -0.23
n1 = 35.9 % *1000 = 359 , n2 = 274
s.e = sqrt(p1*q1 /n1 + p2*q2/n2)
= sqrt(0.26*0.74 /359 + 0.49*0.51/274) =0.03805
z = 1.96 for 95 % confidence level
hence interval is
(-0.23 - 1.96*0.03805 , -0.23 + 1.96 *0.03805)
=( -0.30457 , -0.155422 )
