In a recent poll of 500 13-year-olds, many indicated to enjoy their relationships with their parents. Suppose that 200 of the 13-year olds were boys and 300 of them were girls. We wish to estimate the difference in proportions of 13-year old boys and girls who say that their parents are very involved in their lives. In the sample, 93 boys and 172 girls said that their parents are very involved in their lives. What is a 96% confidence interval for the difference in proportions (proportion of boys minus proportion of girls)? (a) Calculate a 95% confidence interval for the difference in proportions (proportion of boys minus proportion of girls)?
(b) Interpret your interval calculated above.

CI 96 %  =  ( - 0.1128  ; 0.0728 )

CI 95%  =  ( - 0.1087 ; 0.6878 )

The two intervals contain 0 value therefore we can support that there is not statistics difference between the two groups with confidence level of 96 % and  95%

Step-by-step explanation:

Boys sample:

sample size   n₁  = 200

x₁  number of boys saying their parents are very involved in their lives

=  93

p₁ = x₁/n₁   =  93/200  =  0.465  then  q₁ =  1  -  p₁   q₁ = 1 - 0.465  q₁ = 0.535

Girls sample

sample size   n₂  = 300

x₂  number of girls saying their parents are very involved in their lives

=  172

p₂  =  x₂/n₂  =  172/ 300  =  0.573 then  q₂ = 1 -0.573  q₂ =  0.427

CI 96 %      α = 4 %  α = 0.04    α/2 = 0.02  

p₁  -  p₂  =  0.465 -  0.573  = - 0.168

CI 96 %   =  (  p₁  -  p₂ ) ±  z(c) * SE

z(c)  for  α  =  0.02       z(c)  =  - 2.05

SE = √ (p₁*q₁)/n₁  +  (p₂*q₂)/n₂

SE = √ ( 0.465*0.535)/200  +  (0.573*0.427)/300

SE =  √  0.00124  +  0.000815    

SE =  √  0.00205

SE =   0.0453

CI 96 %  =  (  -0.02  ±  ( 2.05 * 0.0453 ) )

CI 96 %  =  (  -0.02  ±  ( 0.0928 ))

CI 96 %  =  ( - 0.1128  ; 0.0728 )

a) CI 95%  α =  5 %   α = 0.05     α/2 =  0.025

SE = 0.0453

z(c) for  0.025 is from z-table   z(c)  =  1.96

CI 95%  =  ( - 0.02 ±  1.96 * 0.0453)

CI 95%  =  ( - 0.02 ± 0.08878 )

CI 95%  =  ( - 0.1087 ; 0.6878 )

the central idea is that:

individuals should refuse to cooperate with institutions they believe unjust.

thoreau felt  that governments were more often agents of corruption than justice, even democracies, and that just because the majority feels a certain way does not make it just or correct in absolute terms. he uses the fact that slavery exists in our democracy to support this idea.

he goes on to say that, as a result, people should live true to their own internal laws regarding right and wrong, as a product of reflection and a moral life, rather than following every law that society imposes.
