A College Alcohol Study has interviewed random samples of students at four-year colleges. In the most recent study, 494 of 1000 women reported drinking alcohol and 552 of 1000 men reported drinking alcohol. What is the 95% confidence interval of the drinking alcohol percentage difference between women and men

The 95% confidence interval for the difference between the proportion of women who drink alcohol and the proportion of men who drink alcohol is (-0.102, -0.014) or (-10.2%, -1.4%).

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to calculate the bounds of a 95% confidence interval of the difference between proportions.

For a 95% CI, the critical value for z is z=1.96.

The sample 1 (women), of size n1=1000 has a proportion of p1=0.494.

The sample 2 (men), of size n2=1000 has a proportion of p2=0.552.

The difference between proportions is (p1-p2)=-0.058.

The pooled proportion, needed to calculate the standard error, is:

The estimated standard error of the difference between means is computed using the formula:

Then, the margin of error is:

Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:

The 95% confidence interval for the difference between proportions is (-0.102, -0.014).

d. millimeters per hour.

step-by-step explanation:

we are given that,

carlo used a rain gauge to measure the amount of water his lawn is receiving from the sprinklers.

since, according to the options, we see that,

water cannot be measured by 'miles per hour', 'meters per second' and 'grams per seconds'.

we get that, the water can be measured by 'millimeters per hour'.

hence, the appropriate rate for describing the amount of water is 'millimeters per hour'.

120 seems like the most sensible answer.

step-by-step explanation:

if there is only one topping on all caramel apples and there's 120 of them. then all apples should/will be covered in sprinkles. make sense?
