he Centers for Disease Control reported the percentage of people 18 years of age and older who smoke (CDC website, December 14, 2014). Suppose that a study designed to collect new data on smokers and nonsmokers uses a preliminary estimate of the proportion who smoke of .33. a. How large a sample should be taken to estimate the proportion of smokers in the population with a margin of error of .02 (rounded up to the next whole number)? Use 95% confidence. b. Assume that the study uses your sample size recommendation in part (a) and finds 520 smokers. What is the point estimate of the proportion of smokers in the population (to 4 decimals)? c. What is the 95% confidence interval for the proportion of smokers in the population (to 4 decimals)?

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.
