a).
We are given number of errors in written prescription
Total number of written prescriptions
Therefore the proportion of errors using written prescriptions
We are given number of errors in electronic prescription
Total number of electronic prescriptions
Therefore the proportion of errors using electronic prescriptions
The 99% confidence interval for the difference in population proportion for is given by
The tabulated value is Z=2.576 which is given. Substituting, we get
The 99% confidence interval for the difference in population proportion for is given by (0.295,0.341)
b). Based on the data provided, the 99% confidence interval for the difference between the population proportions is 0.295 and 0.341, which indicates that we are 99% confident that the true difference between population proportions is contained by the interval (0.295, 0.341).

Problem 4: Errors in medical prescriptions occur and a study examined whether electronic prescribing may help reduce errors. Two groups of doctors used written prescriptions and had similar error rates before the study. One group switched to e-prescriptions while the other continued to use written prescriptions, and error rates were measured one year later. The results are given in the following table. Error No Error Total Electronic 254 3594 3848 Written 1478 2370 3848 a. Find a 99% confidence interval...

show work please Problem 3: A study examines chocolate's effects on blood vessel function in healthy people. In the randomized, double-blind, placebo- controlled study, 11 people received 46 grams (1.6 ounces) of dark chocolate (which is naturally flavonoid-rich) every day for two weeks, while a control group of 10 people received a placebo consisting of dark chocolate with low flavonoid content. Participants had their vascular health measured (by means of flow-mediated dilation) before and after the two-week study. The increase...
Please show how to work the problem QUESTION 25 4 points Save Answer A guidance counselor at a local high school is interested in determining what, if any, linear relationship there is between high school percentile ranks and college GPAs. A student's percentile rank is calculated by determining the percentage of all students in the graduating class with a final high school GPA at or below his or hers. For example, a student graduating 10th in a class of 300...
Directions: Please complete the case study by following the prompted directions and answering the following questions. Many questions are asking for your opinion on the analysis of data/graphs, therefore many answers are considered acceptable with a proper explanation. You hould turn in any graphs/questions that are asked for; if I do not ask for a graph or explanation it is not necessary. The solutions should be numbered based on the question you are answering The solutions may be hand written...
