- The Dean is looking for a tenured professor to teacha course. Monetary incentives are needed to get someoneinterested, but how much? The Dean decides to use an auction to do thejob. Two professors, equally qualified, applied for the position. The twoprofessors are invited to covertly submit their bids to the Dean. The Deanwill give the position to the professor who submits the lower bid (if thereis a tie, the job is assigned randomly). The professor who gets the job willbe paid his/her own bid. Each professorís reservation value for teachingthe course is his/her private information. It is common knowledge thattheir reservation values are independently and uniformly distributed over[0,100].

The competitors cook dishes and send them to an executive chef, where it is either approved and sent to the customer, or is deemed unacceptable and sent back to the kitchen. The competition has run for the past 19 years. During the 9th annual Heaven's Kitchen competition, the Ruby team cooked a total of 124 dishes, of which 50 were sent back to the kitchen by the executive chef. In the same period, the competing Sapphire team cooked a total of 154 dishes and had 56 return. Construct a confidence interval to estimate the difference in the proportion of dishes sent back to the Ruby team and the proportion of dishes sent back to the Sapphire team. Use a confidence level of 93%. Round each answer to 4 decimal places. Do not round from one part to the next when performing the calculations, though. Find the confidence interval. <p1−p2<arrow_forward
