A random sample of 250 bolts from machine A contained 20 defective bolts, while an independently chosen, random sampl contained 32 defective bolts. Let p, be the proportion of the population of all bolts from machine A that are defective, and population of all bolts from machine B that are defective. Find a 95% confidence interval for p1-P2. Then find the lower ir confidence interval. Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places. Round your responses to at least three decimal plac formulas.)

A newsgroup is interested in constructing a 90% confidence interval for the difference in the proportions of Texans and New Yorkers who favor a new Green initiative. Of the 531 randomly selected Texans surveyed, 354 were in favor of the initiative and of the 559 randomly selected New Yorkers surveyed, 460 were in favor of the initiative. a. With 90% confidence the difference in the proportions of Texans and New Yorkers who favor a new (round to 3 decimal places) and (round to 3 decimal Green initiative is between places). b. If many groups of 531 randomly selected Texans and 559 randomly selected New Yorkers were surveyed, then a different confidence interval would be produced from each group. About percent of these confidence intervals will contain the true population proportion of the difference in the proportions of Texans and New Yorkers who favor a new Green initiative and about percent will not contain the true population difference in proportions.
Construct a 95% confidence interval for p1 - p2 for a survey that finds 30% of 240 males and 41% of 200 females are opposed to the death penalty. Group of answer choices a.(-0.200, -0.021) b.(-1.532, 1.342) c.(-1.324, 1.512) d.(-0.561, 0.651)
A random sample of n1n1 = 236 people who live in a city were selected and 90 identified as a "dog person." A random sample of n2n2 = 103 people who live in a rural area were selected and 56 identified as a "dog person." Find the 99% confidence interval for the difference in the proportion of people that live in a city who identify as a "dog person" and the proportion of people that live in a rural area who identify as a "dog person." Round answers to to 4 decimal places. ___________< p1−p2p1-p2 <_____________
A researcher has 56 pairs of participants who each experience two different experimental conditions. The mean for the first condition was is 34.27 and the mean for the second condition is 33.67. Assuming that tcv(N = 55, α = .05) = 2.004 and sMD = .65, what is the value of the 95% confidence interval?
An accounting professor is notorious for being stingy in giving out good letter grades. In a large section of 100 students in the fall semester, she gave out only 3% A's, 13% B's, 52% C's, and 32% D's and F's. Assuming that this was a representative class, compute the 99% confidence interval of the probability of getting at least a B from this professor. Use Z0.005 = 2.576 in your calculation. (You may find it useful to reference the z table. Round final answers to 3 decimal places.) Confidentce Interval from _______ to _______
A retrospective study of 100 pairs of twins was performed. The twin pairs each had one male child and one female child. Their birth weights were studied to determine if the male twin was consistently heavier. The difference in weights was calculated by subtracting the female weight (in ounces) from the male weight (in ounces): d=xm−xfd=xm-xf After looking at 100 pairs of twins, the study finds the 95% confidence interval for the mean difference of weights (in ounces) is: 1.9 < μdμd < 6.7 Can we be reasonably sure that the male twins are heavier than the females? Yes No Why or why not?
A random sample of 500 patients with diabetes were weighed before and after switching to a new drug and the change in their weight is computed for each patient. The resulting 90% confidence interval for the average change in the weight of diabetes patients is (1, 5) expressed in pounds. Which of the following can be the 95% confidence interval generated from the same data?
Jelly beans are packed in boxes of 50, and the overall proportion of black jelly beans is set by the manufacturer to be 0.2. Suppose that 10 boxes of jelly beans are selected at random, and the proportion of black jelly beans in each box determined. a Use your calculator to generate 10 values of the sample proportidn p of black jelly beans in a box. b Use your calculator to find an approximate 80% confidence interval for the population proportion p from each of these values of the sample proportion p. c How many of these intervals contain the value of the population proportion p? d How many of these intervals would you expect to contain the value of the population proportion p? e Suppose that we generate 50 approximate 80% confidence intervals for p. How many of these intervals would you expect to contain the value of the population proportion p?
Two different researchers measured the weight of two separate samples of ruby-throated hummingbirds from the same population. Each calculated a 95% confidence interval for the mean weight of these birds. Researcher 1 found the 95% confidence interval to be 3.12 g < μ < 3.48 g while Researcher 2 found the 95% confidence interval to be 3.05g < μ < 3.62 g. Why would the two researchers get different answers? Which researcher most likely had the larger sample? Can you be certain about your answer in part (b)? Why or why not?
A random sample of n1n1 = 235 people who live in a city were selected and 79 identified as a "dog person." A random sample of n2n2 = 93 people who live in a rural area were selected and 67 identified as a "dog person." Find the 99% confidence interval for the difference in the proportion of people that live in a city who identify as a "dog person" and the proportion of people that live in a rural area who identify as a "dog person."
