### Evaluating a Z-Score Formula for Two Proportions
In this example, we will evaluate the z-score formula for the difference between two population proportions. The formula to calculate the z-score is given by:
\[ z = \frac{\left(\hat{p}_1 - \hat{p}_2 \right) - \left(p_1 - p_2 \right)}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat{p} \cdot \hat{q}}{n_1} + \frac{\hat{p} \cdot \hat{q}}{n_2}}} \]
We have the following values:
* \(\hat{p}_1 = 0.3\)
* \(\hat{p}_2 = 0.7\)
* \(p_1 - p_2 = 0\)
* \(\hat{p} = 0.709891\)
* \(\hat{q} = 0.266566\)
* \(n_1 = 74\)
* \(n_2 = 88\)
To simplify, replace the values into the formula:
\[ z = \frac{\left(0.3 - 0.7 \right) - 0}{\sqrt{\frac{0.709891 \cdot 0.266566}{74} + \frac{0.709891 \cdot 0.266566}{88}}} \]
Proceed to calculate the inner values step by step:
1. Calculate the difference in sample proportions:
\[ \hat{p}_1 - \hat{p}_2 = 0.3 - 0.7 = -0.4 \]
2. Since \( p_1 - p_2 = 0 \), the numerator becomes:
\[ -0.4 - 0 = -0.4 \]
3. Calculate \( \frac{\hat{p} \cdot \hat{q}}{n_1} \) and \( \frac{\hat{p} \cdot \hat{q}}{n_2} \):
\[ \frac{0.709891 \cdot 0.266566}{74} \]
\[ \frac{0.709891 \cdot 0.266566}{88} \]
4. Sum these two results for the denominator and compute the square](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F71d8e860-613e-4767-a1aa-a7e7c05fb956%2F8588a18d-a694-4918-a0f8-e7ab2047cffa%2F714b3c.png&w=3840&q=75)
