Question: Refer to problem (5). Using the formula on page 444 in our textbook, construct the 95% confidence interval for the difference in proportions p 1 -p 2 , where p 1 is the proportion of male diabetics who smoke, and p 2 is the proportion of female diabetics who smoke. Interpret the results. Compare this confidence interval to your hypothesis test result in #5. Explain why you would reject the null hypothesis if the confidence interval did not contain zero.
| Male diabetics | Female diabetics |
| x 1 = 215 | x 2 = 170 |
| n 1 = 500 | n 2 = 500 |
| population proportion p 1 | population proportion p 2 |
