Question 9 Of 1000 randomly selected cases of lung cancer, 841 resulted in death within 10 years. Construct a 95% two-sided confidence interval on the death rate from lung cancer. (a) Construct a 95% two-sided confidence interval on the death rate from lung cancer. Round your answers to 3 decimal places.

0.818335 ≤ p ≤ 0.86366

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Sample size (n) = 1000

Positive lung cancer = 841

n(p) = 841, p(p) = 841/1000 = 0.841

n(1 - p) = 1000 - 841 = 159

1 - p = 0.159

95% confidence interval

For a 95% confidence interval : z = 1.96

P ± z√p(1-p) / n

0.841 ± 1.96 * √0.841(0.159) / 1000

0.841 - (1.96 * 0.0115636) = 0.818335344

0.841 + (1.96 * 0.0115636) = 0.863664656

0.818335 ≤ p ≤ 0.86366

$25

step-by-step explanation:

25 - 4.50 = 20.5

20.5 / 2 = 10.25

10.25 + 10 = 20.25

20.25 - 12.50 = 7.75

therefore the answer is $25 as shown as the first number.
