Correct option:
A We use the confidence interval. It is centered at 0.17
Explanation:
f = Proportion of females = 176/320 = 0.55
m = Proportion of males = 114/300 = 0.38
So,
Q 4.13: Survey results show that 176 of 320 females eat cereal for breakfast, while 114...
Say a 95% confidence interval for P2 - P2, the difference between two proportions, is (0.152, 0.392). This indicates that the difference between the two proportions is not significant. A) True-- Yes OB) False--No O C) Can't tell without the data Question 7 (1 point) According to National Eye Institute (NEI), in 2010, 61% of Americans with cataract were women and 39% were men. Suppose you want to conduct a test for the difference in proportions to test whether females...

This question is based on Ch10, but we can solve it using our knowledge from Ch9. In Ch 8, we created confidence intervals to test whether the means differed in a statistically significant manner between two independent (unrelated) populations, like males and females. The sample point estimator in the confidence interval was the difference in the sample means between the 2 samples (xbar - ybar). We created a confidence interval of the form: (xbar-ybar) +/- (Zα/2)[standard error of (xbar-ybar)] We...
Listed below are the numbers of words spoken in a day by each member of eight different randomly selected couples. Complete parts (a) and (b) below. Male 15,872 25,816 1461 7988 18,247 15,214 14,017 24,920 Female 24,620 13,031 18,262 17,336 13,250 16,651 16,269 17,969 What is the conclusion based on the hypothesis test? Since the P-value is greater than the significance level, fail to reject the null hypothesis. There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that males speak...
A report included the following information on the heights (in.) for non-Hispanic white females. Age 20-39 60 and older Sample Sample Std. Error Size Mean Mean 868 64.7 0.09 933 63. 1 0 .11 (a) Calculate a confidence interval at confidence level approximately 95% for the difference between population mean height for the younger women and that for the older women. (Use U20-39 - M 60 and older.) Interpret the interval. We are 95% confident that the true average height...
1, In 1943, an organization surveyed 1100 adults and asked, "Are you a total abstainer from, or do you on occasion consume, alcoholic beverages?" Of the 1100 adults surveyed, 385 indicated that they were total abstainers. In a recent survey, the same question was asked of 1100 adults and 363 indicated that they were total abstainers. Complete parts (a) and (b) below. (a) Determine the sample proportion for each sample. The proportions of the adults who took the 1943 survey...

1. A newspaper published an article about a study in which researchers subjected laboratory gloves to stress. Among 213 vinyl gloves, 63% leaked viruses. Among 213 latex gloves, 9% leaked viruses. Using the accompanying display of the technology results, and using a 0.10 significance level, test the claim that vinyl gloves have a greater virus leak rate than latex gloves. Let vinyl gloves be population 1. technology results: Pooled proportion: 0.36 Test statistic, z: 11.6982 Critical z: 1.2816 P-value:...
