In a sample of 50 men, 44 said that they had less leisure time today than they had 10 years ago. In a sample of 50 women, 48 women said that they had less leisure time than they had 10 years ago. Find the 90% confidence interval for the difference of the two proportions. (0.372, 0.508) (-0.097,0.297) (-0.168, 0.008) (-0.032,0.192)

A statistical study is made to compare the % of smokers in small rural towns to the overall smoking rate of the US. Of 1500 asults selected randomly from small towns it is found that 285 of them smoke. With a cofidence interval of (017, 0.21). The CDC reports that 15.1% of all American adults smoke. Does the confidence interval suggest that smoking rate is higher in small towns than in the country overall?
A researcher investigated whether the temperature of milk, x, can be used to predict the milk's pH content, y. She predicted the pH level of a glass of milk with a temperature of 8.45 degrees to be ŷ= 6.795 a)A 95% confidence interval for the mean pH of all milk with temperature 8.45 degrees is calculated to be (6.76, 6.83). Which of the following is the correct interpretation of this confidence interval? -The mean pH level for all glasses of milk having a temperature of 8.45 degrees is somewhere between 6.76 and 6.83, with 95% confidence. -The pH level for one glass of milk with a temperature of 8.45 degrees is somewhere between 6.76 and 6.83, with 95% confidence. -There is a probability of 0.95 that the mean pH level for this glass of milk with temperature 8.45 degrees is between 6.76 and 6.83. -95% of all glasses of milk with a temperature of 8.45 degrees have a pH level between 6.76 and 6.83. b)Suppose we have a glass of milk whose temperature is 8.45 degrees.

Two different researchers measured the weight of two separate samples of ruby-throated hummingbirds from the same population. Each calculated a 95% confidence interval for the mean weight of these birds. Researcher 1 found the 95% confidence interval to be 3.12 g < μ < 3.48 g while Researcher 2 found the 95% confidence interval to be 3.05g < μ < 3.62 g. Why would the two researchers get different answers? Which researcher most likely had the larger sample? Can you be certain about your answer in part (b)? Why or why not?
