A study was done to determine whether there is a relationship between snoring and the risk of heart disease.

Question

A study was done to determine whether there is a relationship between snoring and the risk of heart disease. Among 1,105 snorers in the study, 89 had heart disease, while only 29 of 1,379 nonsnorers had heart disease.

 

Determine a 95% confidence interval that estimates 
p1 − p2 = difference
 in proportions of snorers and nonsnorers who have heart disease. (Let 
p1
 be the proportion of snorers and 
p2
 be the proportion of nonsnorers. Round your answers to three decimal places.)
