Two different simple random samples are drawn from two different populations. The first sample consists of 40 people with 19 having a common attribute. The second sample consists of 2200 people with 1555 of them having the same common attribute. Compare the results from a hypothesis test of p 1=p 2 (with a 0.01 significance level) and a 99% confidence interval estimate of p 1-p 2. Calculate the test statistic z to two decimal places, the critical values, and find the confidence interval.
