Two brands of tires were compared for the proportion of defective tires. Random samples of tires were collected from each brand, and the number of defective tires from each brand was recorded. The data is in the following table. nNumber of defective tires (x) 41 Continental Michelin 320 180 32 a.Construct a 97% confidence interval for the difference between the two proportions. b.For part a, find the desired sample sizes if you want the Continental sample to be 1.5 times Michelin sample with a sampling error equal to 0.03. c. Conduct a test of hypothesis to determine if the defective rates are the same. Use the P-value to interpret the results (a is not given).

Types of Bias

Statistics is the study of data collection, organization, analysis, interpretation, and presentation. Statistical bias is a characteristic of a statistical technique or its findings in which the expected value deviates from the actual root quantitative parameter being estimated. According to the actual definition of bias, it refers to the tendency of a statistic to overestimate or underestimate a parameter.
