National statistics show that 23% of men (sample 1) smoke and 18.5% of women (sample 2) do. A random sample of 149 men indicated that 64 were smokers , and of 119 women surveyed , 41 indicated that they smoked. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the true difference in proportions of male and female smokers. Select one: O a. -0.032
An insurance company selected samples of clients under 18 years of age and over 18 and recorded the number of accidents they had in the previous year. We are interested in determining if the accident proportions differ between the two age groups. The results are shown below. a =0.05 Under age of 18 Over age of 18 n₂ =500 n₁ = 480 Number of accidents = 160 Number of accidents = 140 The test statistic is A 90% confidence interval for the proportion between two age groups is approximately Given a 5% level of significance, what decision should be reached about the null hypothesis
A 90% confidence interval for the difference between the proportion of college students who use flash cards for studying and high school students who use flash cards for studying is (0.13, 0.23). Then the Error is +5%. True False
CNN is conducting a poll, and wants to produce a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of all New York residents who favor legalizing recreational marijuana. Of the 602 randomly selected New Yorkers surveyed, 394 were in favor of the initiative. a. With 90% confidence, the proportion of New York residents who favor legalizing recreational marijuana is between BLANK and BLANK. b. Suppose that we survey 602 randomly selected Americans many times, and calculate a confidence interval for each group. About Blank . percent of these confidence intervals will contain the true population proportion of New Yorkers who favor legalizing recreational marijuana, and about BLANK percent will not contain the true population proportion.

The Athletics Department at a high school is interested in the difference in the run times between 11th and 12th grade students. Suppose the 11th grade students make up the first sample while the 12th grade students make up the second.Using a confidence level of 95%, the confidence interval found was (−1.8,2.9)(-1.8,2.9).Which of the following is the correct interpretation? We are 95% confident that the run times of the 11th grade students are, on average, faster than those of the 12th grade students. We are 95% confident that the run times of the 11th grade students are, on average, slower than those of the 12th grade students. We are 95% confident that the run times of the 11th grade students are, on average, about the same as those of the 12th grade students.

A national polling organization conducted a survey asking people whether they would consider buying an electric car if petrol prices continue to rise. In the low-income sample of 200 people asked, 175 said they would not buy an electric car no matter how high petrol prices rise. In the high-income sample of 200 people asked, 127 responded the same. The 95% confidence interval for the difference in proportion of low income people and high income people who would never consider buying an electric car no matter how high the price of petrol got (rounded off to three decimals) is: A. [0.173 : 0.307] B. [0.145 : 0.335] C. [0.159 : 0.321] D. [0.172 : 0.308]
