6) After ape trials are successful, you decide to move on to human trials. You determine that Compound W has a 92% chance of curing a person that is infected with the new virus. Wanting to determine if your percentage is on the level, another scientist repeats your experiment with 9000 infected people taken at random, yielding a cure rate of 91%. Is this enough information to determine that the cure rate of compound W is less then what you originally thought it was? 7) What is the only error (either type I or type II) that could occur in this scenario, explain that error in context of the problem 8) Another scientist is creating compound Z, and during trials he uses it on a random 5000 people with the virus, yielding a 75% cure rate. Using this information, determine a 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of people who will be cured with compound Z.
