Researchers at the national cancer institute released the results of a study that investigated the effect of weed-killing herbicides on house pets. they examined 800 cats from homes where a herbicide was used on a regular basis, diagnosing malignant lymphoma in 390 of them. of the 200 cats from homes where no herbicides were used, 39 were found to have lymphoma.
a.) construct a 99% confidence interval for this difference
b.) state an appropriate conclusion
Let p1 denote proportion of cats having lymphoma from home where herbicides were used and p2 denote proportion of cats having lymphoma from home where herbicides were not used.
99% confidence interval is
(p1-p2) -+ 2.576* sqrt( p1(1-p1)/n1 + p2(1-p2)/n2)
(0.487-0.195) -+ 2.576*sqrt(0.487*0.513/800 + 0.195*0.805/200)
0.292 -+ 2.576*sqrt(0.0003+ 0.00078)
0.292 -+ 2.576*0.032
0.292 -+ 0.082
( 0.21 , 0.374)
Since interval does not contain 0 and is greater than 0.Thus proportion of cats having lymphoma from home where herbicides were used is greater than those where herbicides were not used.

In 1995, researchers investigated the effect of weed-killing herbicides on house pets. They examined 840 dogs from homes where herbicides were used regularly, diagnosing malignant lymphoma in 436 of them. Of the 124 dogs from homes where no herbicides were used, only 19 were found to have lymphoma. a) What is the standard error of the difference in the two proportions? b) Create a 99% confidence interval for this difference. c) State an appropriate conclusion.
In 2005, researchers investigated the effect of weed-killing herbicides on house pets. They examined 823 dogs from homes where herbicides were used regularly, diagnosing malignant lymphoma in 440 of them. Of the 142 dogs from homes where no herbicides were used, only 20 were found to have lymphoma. a) What is the standard error of the difference in the two proportions? b) Create a 95% confidence interval for this difference. c) State an appropriate conclusion.
