vodomira [7]
I believe the correct answer among the choice presented above is the second option. The minimum number of points needed to determine the equation of a line containing those points is two. This is because two points is also needed to make or define a line.

6.In a sample of 131 women with cosmetic dermatitis from using eye shadow, 12 were diagnosed with a nickel allergy. In a sample
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

a) 0.0916 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.0916(1-0.0916)}{131}}=0.0422

0.0916 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.0916(1-0.0916)}{131}}=0.1410

So then we can conclude that the true proportion of women with cosmetic dermatitis from using eye shadow at 95% of confidence is between (0.0422 and 0.1410)

b) \hat p = \frac{25}{250}= 0.1

0.1 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.1(1-0.1)}{250}}=0.0628

0.1 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.1(1-0.1)}{250}}=0.1372

So then we can conclude that the true proportion of women with cosmetic dermatitis from using mascara at 95% of confidence is between (0.0628 and 0.1372)

c) For this case we see that both confidence intervals contains the value of 0.12 so then we can't conclude that only one group is referenced at the significance level of 0.05 used.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a

The estimated proportion of women with cosmetic dermatitis from using eye shadow is given by:

\hat p =\frac{12}{131}= 0.0916

The confidence  interval is at 95% of confidence, our significance level would be given by \alpha=1-0.95=0.05 and \alpha/2 =0.025. And the critical value would be given by:

z_{\alpha/2}=-1.96, z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.96

The confidence interval for the proportion is given by the following formula:  

\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}

Replacing we got:

0.0916 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.0916(1-0.0916)}{131}}=0.0422

0.0916 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.0916(1-0.0916)}{131}}=0.1410

So then we can conclude that the true proportion of women with cosmetic dermatitis from using eye shadow at 95% of confidence is between (0.0422 and 0.1410)

Part b: A 95% confidence interval for the women with cosmetic dermatitis from using mascara

\hat p = \frac{25}{250}= 0.1

0.1 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.1(1-0.1)}{250}}=0.0628

0.1 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.1(1-0.1)}{250}}=0.1372

So then we can conclude that the true proportion of women with cosmetic dermatitis from using mascara at 95% of confidence is between (0.0628 and 0.1372)

Part c: Suppose you are informed that the true proportion with a nickel allergy for one of the two groups (eye shadow or mascara) is .12. Can you determine which group is referenced? Explain.

For this case we see that both confidence intervals contains the value of 0.12 so then we can't conclude that only one group is referenced at the significance level of 0.05 used.
