Erythropoietin (EPO) is a banned drug used by athletes to increase the oxygen-carrying capacity of their blood. New tests for EPO were first introduced prior to the 2000 Olympic Games held in Sydney, Australia. Chance (Spring 2004) reported that of a sample of 830 world-class athletes, 159 did not compete in the 1999 World Championships (a year prior to the new EPO test). Similarly, 133 of 825 potential athletes did not compete in the 2000 Olympic Games. Use a 90% confidence interval to compare the two proportions. Was the new test effective in deterring an athlete’s participation in the 2000 Olympics? Use the CI information to make your conclusion

2-Proportion Test

In a 2-proportion test, two separate proportions are measured at the same time, and their similarity is evaluated. It is also known as a 2-proportion z-test, and a comparison of two different proportions is done in this method.
