DATAfile: ComputerNews You may need to use the appropriate appendix table or technology to answer this question. The American Press Institute reports that almost 70% of all American adults use a computer to gain access to news. Based on generational differences, you suspect that the proportion of American adults under 30 years old who use a computer to gain access to news exceeds the proportion of Americans 30 years and older who use a computer to gain access to news. Data in the file ComputerNews represent responses to the question, "Do you use a computer to gain access to news?" given by random samples of American adults under 30 years old and Americans 30 years and older. (a) Estimate the proportion of American adults under 30 years old who use a computer to gain access to news and the proportion of Americans 30 years and older who use a computer to gain access to news. (Round your answers to three decimal places.) American adults under 30 years old Americans 30 years and older 325 675 (b) Provide a 95% confidence interval for the difference in proportions between American adults under 30 years old who use a computer to gain access to news and Americans 30 years and older who use a computer to gain access to news. (Round your answers to four decimal places.) 449 x to -2551 (c) On the basis of your findings, does it appear the proportion of American adults under 30 years old who use a computer to gain access to news exceeds the proportion of Americans 30 years and older who use a computer to gain access to news? Select, because the 95% confidence interval -Select- zero 1 Do you use a computer to gain access to news? 2 Under 30 30 and Older 3 No Yes 4 Yes No 5 Yes Yes 10 6 Yes No 7 Yes No 8 No Yes 9 Yes Yes 10 Yes Yes 11 Yes No 12 Yes Yes 13 No No 14 No Yes 15 Yes No 16 Yes Yes 17 Yes No 18 Yes Yes 19 Yes Yes 31 34 222222222225233 20 Yes No 21 Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes 24 Yes No Yes Yes 26 No Yes 27 Yes Yes 28 No Yes 29 Yes No 30 Yes Yes No Yes Yes No Yes Yes Yes Yes 35 No No 36 Yes Yes 37 Yes Yes 38 No Yes 39 Yes No 40 Yes Yes 41 Yes Yes 42 Yes No 43 Yes Yes 44 Yes Yes 45 Yes No 46 Yes Yes 47 No Yes 48 Yes Yes 49 Yes No 50 Yes No 51 Yes Yes 52 Yes No 53 No Yes 54 Yes Yes 55 No Yes 56 Yes No 57 Yes No 58 No No 59) Yes No 60 Yes No 61 No Yes 62 Yes No 63 No Yes 64 Yes No 65 Yes No 66 Yes Yes 67 No No 68 Yes No No No 76 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 REEFERRER2222222 70 Yes Yes Yes No 72 No No No Yes 74 Yes Yes 75 No Yes Yes No Yes No Yes No Yes Yes No No Yes No Yes No Yes No Yes No Yes Yes No No Yes Yes No No 89 Yes Yes 90 No No 91 No Yes 92 Yes Yes 93 Yes No 94 Yes No 95 Yes Yes 96 Yes No 97 Yes No 98 Yes Yes 99 Yes No 100 Yes No 101 Yes No 102 Yes No 22 103 Yes Yes 104 Yes No. 105 Yes Yes 106 No Yes 107 Yes Yes 108 No Yes 109 Yes Yes 110 Yes Yes 111 Yes No 112 No Yes 113 Yes Yes 114 No Yes 115 Yes No 116 Yes Yes 117 No No 118 No Yes 119 Yes No 120 Yes Yes 121 No Yes 122 No No 123 Yes Yes 124 No Yes 125 Yes No 126 Yes No 127 Yes No 128 No Yes 129 Yes Yes 130 No Yes 131 Yes Yes 132 Yes Yes 133 Yes Yes 134 No No 135 Yes 136 Yes 22 No No 137 Yes Yes 138 Yes Yes 139 No No 140 Yes Yes. 141 No Yes 142 Yes No 143 Yes Yes 144 Yes Yes 145 Yes No 146 No Yes 147 Yes No 148 Yes Yes 149 Yes No 150 Yes Yes 151 Yes Yes 152 No No 153 No 154 Yes 155 Yes 156 No 157 No 158 No 159 No 160 No 161 Yes 162 No 163 Yes 164 No 165 Yes 166 Yes 167 Yes 168 Yes 169 No 170 Yes 171 172 Yes No 173 No 174 Yes 175 Yes 176 No 177 No 178 Yes 179 Yes 180 No 181 No 182 Yes 183 184 No- Yes 185 Yes 186 No 187 Yes 188 Yes 189 No 190 Yes 191 Yes 192 No 193 No 194 No 195 Yes 196 No 197 Yes 198 Yes 199 Yes 200 Yes 201 Yes 202 No 203 204 TABLE 1 CUMULATIVE PROBABILITIES FOR THE STANDARD NORMAL DISTRIBUTION Cumulative probability 0 Entries in the table give the area under the curve to the left of the z value.
