(a) In a year there are 956 births in a town A of which \( 52.5 \% \) were males while in town A and B combined this proportion in total of 1406 births was 496 . Is there any significant difference in the proportion of male birth in two towns? ???? ?????????? ??? ????? A-?? ??????? ????????? 956

Step 1
Given that 52.5% of the 956 births in town A were males, we can calculate the number of male births as follows: \[ \text{Number of male births in town A} = 0.525 \times 956 = 501.9 \approx 502 \] Show more…

A large automobile insurance company selected samples of single and married male policy- holders and recorded the number who made an insurance claim over the preceding three- year period $$ \begin{array}{c}{\text { Single Policyholders }} \\ {n_{1}=400} \\ {\text { Number making claims }=76}\end{array} $$ $$ \begin{array}{c}{\text { Married Policyholders }} \\ {n_{2}=900} \\ {\text { Number making claims }=90}\end{array} $$ a. Use $a=.05 .$ Test to determine whether the claim rates differ between single and married male policyholders. b. Provide a 95$\%$ confidence interval for the difference between the proportions for the two populations.
For this question, assume male and female babies are equally likely and ignore multiple births and intersex babies. A large city has two hospitals with maternity wards. Hospital A delivers an average of 231.2 babies a month and hospital B delivers an average of 432.6 babies a month. 1. Which of the hospitals is more likely to have more than 55% female babies in a given month? [ Select ] 2. Which of the hospitals is more likely to have exactly 50% female babies in a given month? [ Select ] 3. Which of the hospitals is more likely to have between 45% and 55% female babies in a given month? [ Select ]
