You want to know if there's a difference between the proportions of high-school students and college students who read newspapers regularly. out of a random sample of 500 high-school students, 287 say they read newspapers regularly, and out of a random sample of 420 college students, 252 say they read newspapers regularly. for this question, think of high-school students as sample one and college students as sample two.
a. construct a 95% confidence interval for the difference between the proportions of high-school students and college students who read newspapers regularly. be sure to show that you've satisfied the conditions for using a z-interval. (5 points)
b. draw a conclusion, based on your 95% confidence interval, about the difference between the two proportions. (2 points)
c. if you wanted to use a test statistic to determine whether the proportion of high-school students who read newspapers regularly is significantly lower than the proportion of college students who read newspapers regularly, what would you use as your null and alternative hypotheses? (2 points)
d. calculate p ˆ, the pooled estimate of the population proportions you'd use for a significance test about the difference between the proportions of high-school students and college students who read newspapers regularly. (1 point)
e. demonstrate that these samples meet the requirements for using a zprocedure for a significance test about the difference between two proportions. (2 points)
f. calculate sep ˆ , the pooled estimate of the standard errors of the proportions you'd use in a z-procedure for a significance test about the difference between two proportions. (1 point)
g. calculate your test statistic and p-value for the hypothesis test h0 : p1 = p2 , ha : p1 < p2 . (4 points)
h. draw a conclusion about the difference between the two proportions using α = .05. is the proportion of high-school students who read the newspaper on a regular basis less than the proportion of college students who read newspapers regularly?

On traditional maps, earth is represented in a flat plane, or by euclidean geometry. however, a globe is a more accurate model that comes from elliptical geometry. how does a globe represent the fact that there are no parallel lines in elliptical geometry? the equator is not parallel to any other latitudinal lines. the north and south poles are never connected by a geodesic. the geodesics connecting the north and south poles never intersect. the geodesics connecting the north and south poles intersect at both of the poles.
