In a trial of 350 patients who received 10-mg doses of a drug daily, 49 reported headache as a side effect. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the population proportion of patients who receive the drug and report headache as a side effect.
A study was done to determine whether there is a relationship between snoring and the risk of heart disease. Among 1,105 snorers in the study, 89 had heart disease, while only 29 of 1,379 nonsnorers had heart disease. Determine a 95% confidence interval that estimates p1 − p2 = difference in proportions of snorers and nonsnorers who have heart disease. (Let p1 be the proportion of snorers and p2 be the proportion of nonsnorers. Round your answers to three decimal places.) ____to ____

A study was conducted that measured the total brain volume (TBV) (in mm³) of patients that had schizophrenia and patients that are considered normal. The first table contains the TBV of the non- schizophrenic patients and the second table contains the TBV of schizophrenia patients. Compute a 99% confidence interval for the difference in TBV of non-schizophrenic patients and patients with Schizophrenia. Prior studies say nothing about the equality of variances. Round to the nearest whole number.

In a test of the effectiveness of garlic for lowering cholesterol,44 subjects were treated with garlic in a processed tablet form. Cholesterol levels were measured before and after the treatment. The changes(beforeminus after) in their levels of LDL cholesterol (in mg/dL) have a mean of 5.6 and a standard deviation of 17.5. Construct a 99%confidence interval estimate of the mean net change in LDL cholesterol after the garlic treatment. What does the confidence interval suggest about the effectiveness of garlic in reducing LDL cholesterol? What is the confidence interval estimate of the population mean mu? mg/dLless than muless than mg/dL (Round to two decimal places as needed.)

In August 2005, researchers for the American Society for Microbiology and the Soap and Detergent Association monitored the behavior of more than 6300 users of public restrooms. They observed people in public venues such as Turner Field in Atlanta and Grand Central Station in New York City. They found that 2393 of 3206 men washed their hands, compared to 2802 of 3130 women. For each gender, construct a 99% confidence interval for the population proportion who wash their hands in public restrooms. (4 decimals)
Kmart decided to inventory all of its furniture stock for a year end evaluation. At that time there were 768 items of furniture. A random sample of 40 items of furniture were selected for audit, with sample mean=$249.06 and SD=$92.58. Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the total value of furniture stock for year end.
Samples of 400 printed circuit boards were selected from each of two productionlines A and B. Line A produced 40 defectives, and line B produced 80 defectives.Using an estimate for each line, do the data indicate that the two lines produce adifferent fraction of defective circuit boards, with 97% confidence.
After surveying a random sample of 300 students in an online degree program, 86% believed that their classes were worth the cost they were paying. The results from a survey of 345 randomly selected students who were in a face-to-face degree program who had also taken some online courses, showed that 84% of them believed those online courses were worth the cost. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the difference between the two groups of students.
The Consumer Product Safety Commission regulates products sold for use with children. An investigator is tasked with determining whether a male child will get sick after being exposed to a certain brand of house paint than a female child. Data was collected that on 1854 children between the ages one and four, all of whom were exposed to the same brand of house paint. 985 were boys, while 869 were girls. Determine a 95% confidence interval for the difference in proportions of male and female children, ages one to four, who will get sick. Round to four decimal places.With % confidence, it can be concluded that the difference in proportions of between male and female children, ages one to four, who get sick after being exposed to this brand of house paint is (p1 - p2) is between BLANK and BLANK .
