- A recent study of high school students shows the percentage of females and males who have an after-school job. A simple random sample of high school students was interviewed. The students were asked whether they worked after school. Of the 250 females, 58 answered yes, as did 113 of the 380 males. Part A: Construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the difference in population proportions of females and males who have an after-school job. Be sure to state the parameter, check conditions, perform calculations, and make conclusion(s). Part B: Does your interval from part A give convincing evidence of a difference between the population proportions? Explain.arrow_forwardIn a preelection poll, a pollster finds that 442 out of 650 people polled favor Smith.

- CNN is conducting a poll, and wants to produce a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of all New York residents who favor legalizing recreational marijuana. Of the 602 randomly selected New Yorkers surveyed, 394 were in favor of the initiative. a. With 90% confidence, the proportion of New York residents who favor legalizing recreational marijuana is between BLANK and BLANK. b. Suppose that we survey 602 randomly selected Americans many times, and calculate a confidence interval for each group. About Blank . percent of these confidence intervals will contain the true population proportion of New Yorkers who favor legalizing recreational marijuana, and about BLANK percent will not contain the true population proportion.arrow_forwardA researcher reports t(5) = +3.00, p < .05 for a repeated-measures research study.
