Who Smokes More: Male Students or Female Students? 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. Click here for the dataset associated with this question. Click here to access StatKey. (a) What is the best estimate for the difference in the proportion of smokers, using female proportion minus male proportion? Round your answer to three decimal places.

difference in the proportion = 0.0452

Step-by-step explanation:

x1 = 27, n1 = 193,

p1 = 27/193

p1 = 0.1399

x2 = 16, n2 = 169,

p2 = 16/169

p2 = 0.0947

a) The best estimate for the difference in the proportion of smokers, using male proportion minus female proportion is 0.0452. Male smokes more than females in given sample.

p1 - p2 = 0.1399 - 0.0947

p1 - p2 = 0.0452

the answer to this question is in the pic

(- 1, 0 )

step-by-step explanation:

an x- intercept is where the function crosses the x- axis.

to find the x- intercept/s look for the value of x when f(x) = 0

from the given table there are 3 values of x where f(x) = 0

when x = - 1, x = 2, x = 3

the one that is listed is (- 1, 0 )
