Information on a sample of 362 college students is collected. The complete dataset is available at StudentSurvey. We see that 27 of the 193 males in the sample smoke while 16 of the 169 females in the sample smoke. Find a 99% confidence interval for the difference in proportions. Round your answers to three decimal places. Use 8000 samples.

For males and females C.I. at 99 % 596.24±0.8932 and 353.7±0.7517 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

362 students samples of college students.

193 are males and 169 females.

out of which 27 males and 16 females smokes respectively.

To Find:

99% Confidence interval with 8000 samples.

Solution:

For confidence interval we should know mean ,standard deviation and number of samples .

First calculate the percentage of males and females so

For males,

=193/362

=53.31% males are presented.

For females,

=1-53.31

=46.69% females are presented.

Hence for 8000 samples No of males and females will be ,

Males=8000*0.5331

=4265

Females=8000-4265

=3725

Now consider we know probability for smoking related to male sand females,

For males,

Probability of success =p=27/193=0.1398

probability of failure =q=1-0.1398=0.8602

For mean of males

Mean= no of samples*porbability of success

=n*p

=4265*0.1398

=596.24

Standard deviation=Sqrt(n*p*q)

=Sqrt(4265*0.1398*0.8602)

=Sqrt(512.89)

=22.647

Hence C.I at 99% Z=2.567

C.I=mean±Z[standard deviation/Sqrt(No.of males)]

=596.24±2.567[22.647/Sqrt(4265)]

=596.24±2.567[22.647/65.307]

=596.24±0.8932

For Females,

Probability of success=p=16/169=0.0947

Probability of failure=q=1-0.0947=0.9053

Mean=No of females*Probability of success

=0.0947*3735

Mean=353.7

Standard deviation=Sqrt(n*p*q)

=Sqrt(3735*0.0947*0.9053)

S.D.=17.87

For C.I. at 99% Z=2.567

C.I.=mean±Z[standard deviation/Sqrt(No.of females)]

=353.7±2.567[17.87/Sqrt(3725)]

=353.7±0.7517

ok

step-by-step explanation:

points are handed out whenever you post answers.

brainliest answers are handed out by the person asking the question, so whether your answer is picked depends entirely on whether the asker bothers to pick

if you're asking about your rank, it depends on having a certain number of points and a certain number of brainliest answers. for example, at the time of this writing, i have 44338 points out of 15000 needed for the next (nearly triple the requirement! ) but i only have 24 out of 50 required brainliest answers. this number decays, meaning after a certain amount of time (i think about a month), the total number of brainliest answers you've earned doesn't count toward this total. (i've been stuck at the same rank for a long

the lesson to learn here is that you shouldn't worry about points or rank. chances are, no matter how good an answer you may provide, your efforts will go mostly unnoticed unless you focus on the newest/most active questions that get posted.
