According to a report on sleep deprivation by the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention, the proportion of California residents who reported insu icient rest or
sleep during each of the preceding 30 days is 0.079%, while this proportion is 0.091%
for Oregon residents. These data are based on simple random samples of 11112
California and 4686 Oregon residents. Calculate a 95% confidence interval for the
di erence between the proportions of Californians and Oregonians who are sleep
deprived and interpret it in the context of the data. Assume that all conditions are
satisfied.
