From a random sample of 100 women, 15 have dangerous reading blood sugar levels higher than 300 mg/dL. The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all women with dangerous reading levels is O a. 0.15+ (1.96) √0.1275 O b. O d. 0.15 0.15 (1.6449) √0.0013 (1.6449) √0.1275 0.15 (1.96) √0.0013
A newsgroup is interested in constructing a 95% confidence interval for the difference in the proportions of Texans and New Yorkers who favor a new Green initiative. Of the 528 randomly selected Texans surveyed, 432 were in favor of the initiative and of the 554 randomly selected New Yorkers surveyed, 455 were in favor of the initiative. a. With 95% confidence the difference in the proportions of Texans and New Yorkers who favor a new Green initiative is between (round to 3 decimal places) and (round to 3 decimal places). b. If many groups of 528 randomly selected Texans and 554 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.

A study of 420 comma 026 cell phone users found that 140 of them developed cancer of the brain or nervous system. Prior to this study of cell phone use, the rate of such cancer was found to be 0.0434 % for those not using cell phones. Complete parts (a) and (b). a. Use the sample data to construct a 90% confidence interval estimate of the percentage of cell phone users who develop cancer of the brain or nervous system. b. Do cell phone users appear to have a rate of cancer of the brain or nervous system that is different from the rate of such cancer among those not using cell phones? Why or why not?
