Chapter 10.4, Problem 35E
In a test of the quality of two television commercials, each commercial was shown in a separate test area six times over a one-week period. The following week a telephone survey was conducted to identify individuals who had seen the commercials. Those individuals were asked to state the primary message in the commercials. The following results were recorded.
- a. Use α = .05 and test the hypothesis that there is no difference in the recall proportions for the two commercials.
- b. Compute a 95% confidence interval for the difference between the recall proportions for the two populations.

A U.S. Food Survey showed that Americans routinely eat beef in their diet. Suppose that in a study of 49 consumers in Illinois and 64 consumers in Texas the following results were obtained from two samples regarding average yearly beef consumption:
Illinois Texas
= 49 = 64
= 54.1lb = 60.4lb
S1 = 7.0 S2 = 8.0
Develop a 95% confidence Interval Estimate for the difference between the two population means.
In a study designed to assess the side effects of two drugs, 50 animals were given drug A, and 50 animals were given Drug B. Of the 50 receiving Drug A, 11 showed undesirable side effects, while 8 of those receiving Drug B reacted similarly. Find the 98% confidence interval for the true difference in population proportions, pˆ A − pˆ B.
Consider the following sample information randomly selected from two populations. Sample 1: n1 =250, X1=30

For each child, the difference in the score points between the two assessments was calculated and used to create the 95 percent confidence interval (20.1,23.9)(20.1,23.9). Assuming all conditions for inference are met, which of the following is a correct interpretation of the interval? A) For all children in the program, 95 percent of the children will have a mean difference in scores of between 20.1 points and 23.9 points. B) There is a 0.95 probability that the mean difference in scores for all children in the sample is between 20.1 points and 23.9 points.
