- In a cooking competition called Heaven's Kitchen, two teams compete against each other to serve a restaurant full of customers. The competitors cook dishes and send them to an executive chef, where it is either approved and sent to the customer or is deemed unacceptable and sent back to the kitchen. The competition has run for the past 19 years. During the 9th annual Heaven's Kitchen competition, the Ruby team cooked a total of 193 dishes, of which 82 were sent back to the kitchen by the executive chef. In the same period, the competing Sapphire team cooked a total of 239 dishes and had 109 returns. Construct a confidence interval to estimate the difference in the proportion of dishes sent back to the Ruby team and the proportion of dishes sent back to the Sapphire team. Use a confidence level of 96%. Round each answer to 4 decimal places. Do not round from one part to the next when performing the calculations, though.

To play Powerball a participant must purchase a ticket and then select five numbers from the digits 1 through 55 and a Powerball number from the digits 1 through 42. To determine the winning numbers for each game, lottery officials draw five white balls out of a drum with 55 white balls, and one red ball out of a drum with 42 red balls. To win the jackpot, a participant's numbers must match the numbers on the five white balls in any order and the number on the red Powerball. Eight coworkers at the ConAgra Foods plant in Lincoln, Nebraska, claimed the record $365 million jackpot on February 18, 2006, by matching the numbers 15-17-43-44-49 and the Powerball number 29. A variety of other cash prizes are awarded each time the game is played. For instance, a prize of $200,000 is paid if the participantť's five numbers match the numbers on the five white balls (Powerball website,…arrow_forward
