Q3

### Evaluating a Statistical Formula

In this exercise, you are required to evaluate the given formula using provided parameters. The formula and parameters are typically used in hypothesis testing for comparing two proportions.

#### Given:

- \(\hat{p}_1 = 0.5\)
- \(\hat{p}_2 = 0.1\)
- \(p_1 = p_2 = 0\)
- \(\hat{p} = 0.347407\)
- \(\hat{q} = 0.802649\)
- \(n_1 = 68\)
- \(n_2 = 82\)

#### Formula:

\[ z = \frac{(\hat{p}_1 - \hat{p}_2) - (p_1- p_2)}{\sqrt{\hat{p} \cdot \hat{q} \left( \frac{1}{n_1} + \frac{1}{n_2} \right)}} \]

#### Calculations:

Calculate the value of \(z\) using the given data and the formula above.

- Ensure all calculations are rounded to two decimal places as needed.
- Input the final calculated value of \(z\) .

\[ z = \boxed{\quad} \]

*Note that in some educational settings, further detailed step-by-step instructions might be provided to reach the calculated value of \(z\).*
