In clinical trials of Nasonex, 3774 adult and adolescent allergy patients were randomly divided into two groups. The patients in group 1 received 200?g of Nasonex, while the patients in group 2 received a placebo. Of the 2103 patients in the experimental group, 547 reported headaches as a side effect. Of the 1671 patients in the control group, 368 reported headaches as a side effect. Is there significant evidence to conclude that the proportion of Nasonex users who experienced headaches as a side effect is greater than the proportion in the control group at the ? = 0.05 level of significance? a.) Verify that the requirements for inference about two population proportions is satisfied. b.) What is the Null and Alternative Hypotheses? What test will you be using? c.) What is the level of significance and the ?-value?
