A 2001 study asked 1,924 male and 3,666 female under- graduate college students their favorite color. A 95% confidence interval for the difference between the proportions of males and females whose favorite color is black (pmale −pfemale) was calculated to be (0.02, 0.06). Based on this information, determine if the following statements are true or false, and explain your reasoning for each statement you identify as false.

(a) We are 95% confident that the true proportion of males whose favorite color is black is 2% lower to 6% higher than the true proportion of females whose favorite color is black.
(b) We are 95% confident that the true proportion of males whose favorite color is black is 2% to 6% higher than the true proportion of females whose favorite color is black.
(c) 95% of random samples will produce 95% confidence intervals that include the true difference between the population proportions of males and females whose favorite color is black.
(d) We can conclude that there is a significant difference between the proportions of males and fe- males whose favorite color is black and that the difference between the two sample proportions is too large to plausibly be due to chance.
(e) The 95% confidence interval for (pfemale −pmale) cannot be calculated with only the informa- tion given in this exercise.

Does the function satisfy the hypotheses of the mean value theorem on the given interval? f(x) = 4x^2 + 3x + 4, [−1, 1] no, f is continuous on [−1, 1] but not differentiable on (−1, 1). no, f is not continuous on [−1, 1]. yes, f is continuous on [−1, 1] and differentiable on (−1, 1) since polynomials are continuous and differentiable on . there is not enough information to verify if this function satisfies the mean value theorem. yes, it does not matter if f is continuous or differentiable; every function satisfies the mean value theorem.
