23 - It is desired to compare the end-of-term achievements of two faculty members who teach the same course. The success rate of A was 0.45 and the success rate of B was 0.56. Since the standard error of the difference between the rates is 0.038, find the confidence limits of the difference between the academic members' end-of-term success rates with a probability of 95%.

2. In a simple random sample of 1200 Americans age 20 and over, 138 of them were found to have Type I diabetes. Round all answers to three decimal places. a) Report a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all Americans age 20 and over with diabetes. J b) According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, nationally, 10.7% of all Americans age 20 and over have diabetes. Does the confidence interval you found support or refute this claim? Explain.
If n = 521 and (p - hat )= 0.32, find the margin of error at a 99% confidence level?
Suppose we know that a confidence interval for a population proportion is (0.105,0.355), with a sample proportion of p̂=0.23. What is the margin of error?
Your company has developed a probability of purchase model based upon the number of promotions to which a customer has been exposed. The dependent variable is the probability that a customer will make a purchase within the following week (0-1). The independent variable is the number of promotions to which the customer has been exposed over the past month.. The model appears as follows: Probability of Purchase = .2 + .075 (# of promotions exposed in past month) Interpret the associated 95% confidence interval if it is .4 - .6. Interpret the associated 95% prediction interval if it is: .35 - .65.
