How do i calculate the error bound when given this question Stanford University conducted a study of whether running is healthy for men and women over age 50. During the first eight years of the study, 1.5% of the 451 members of the 50-Plus Fitness Association died. We are interested in the proportion of people over 50 who ran and died in the same eight-year period.

A random sample of 300 physicians shows that there are 50 of them who make at least $200,000 a year. What is the test statistic if we want to test that the true proportion of physicians in the population who make at least $200,000 a year is less than 0.20?
Does it seem to you that people tend to be absent more on some days of the week than on others? Recently, a major biotechnology firm collected data with the hope of determining whether or not its employees were more likely to be absent on some weekdays than on others. The firm examined a random sample of 130 employee absences. The distribution of these 130 absences is shown in the table below. The observed frequency for each category (each weekday) is shown in the first row of numbers. The second row of numbers contains the frequencies expected for a sample of 130 employees if employee absences at the firm are equally likely on each of the five weekdays. The bottom row of numbers contains the following value for each of the categories.

Sleep apnea is a condition in which the sufferers stop breathing momentarily while they are asleep. This condition results in lack of sleep and extreme fatigue during waking hours. A current estimate is that 16.3 million out of the 312.7 million Americans suffer from sleep apnea, or approximately 5.2%. A safety commission is concerned about the percentage of commercial truck drivers who suffer from sleep apnea. They do not have any reason to believe that it would be higher or lower than the population’s percentage. To test the claim that the percentage of commercial truck drivers who suffer from sleep apnea is not 5.2%, a simple random sample of 380380 commercial truck drivers is examined by a medical expert, who concludes that 29 suffer from sleep apnea. Does this evidence support the claim that the percentage of commercial truck drivers who suffer from sleep apnea is not 5.2%? Use a 0.01 level of significance. Step 1 of 3 : State the null and alternative hypotheses for the test.…
Check My Work (5 remaining) Each year, over 2 million people in the United States become infected with bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics. In particular, the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention has launched studies of drug-resistant gonorrhea (CDC.gov website). Of 142 cases tested in Alabama, 9 were found to be drug-resistant. Of 268 cases tested in Texas, 5 were found to be drug-resistant. Do these data suggest a statistically significant difference between the proportions of drug- resistant cases in the two states? Use a 0.02 level of significance. What is the p-value, and what is your conclusion? Test statistic = (to 2 decimals) p-value = (to 4 decimals) Conclusion: Reject the null hypothesis Choose the correct option. There is a significant difference in drug resistance between the two states. Alabama has the higher drug resistance rate. True
