An agricultural researcher wishes to see if a kelp extract prevents frost damage on tomato plants. Two similar small plots are going to be planted with the same variety of tomato. Both plots will be treated identically with the exception that the plants on plot 1 are going to be sprayed weekly with a kelp extract while the plants in plot 2 are not. Let p, and p, be the actual proportion of all tomatoes of this variety that would experience crop damage under the kelp and no kelp treatments respectively, when grown under conditions similar to those in the experiment. Which of the following 95% confidence intervals for p- p2 would indicate that there is a significant difference between the two treatments? Select one: a. (-0.279, -0.035) b. (-0.279, 0.035) C. (0.279, 0.350) d. Both a. and c.

Question
An agricultural researcher wishes to see if a kelp extract prevents frost damage on tomato plants. Two similar small plots
are going to be planted with the same variety of tomato. Both plots will be treated identically with the exception that the
plants on plot 1 are going to be sprayed weekly with a kelp extract while the plants in plot 2 are not.
Let p, and p2 be the actual proportion of all tomatoes of this variety that would experience crop damage under the kelp
and no kelp treatments respectively, when grown under conditions similar to those in the experiment.
Which of the following 95% confidence intervals for p - p2 would indicate that there is a significant difference between
the two treatments?
Select one:
a. (-0.279, -0.035)
b. (-0.279, 0.035)
c. (0.279, 0.350)
