Using approach A, 20% of 100 calls led to requestsfor the mailing of additional product information. For approach Bin another 100 calls, only 14 % led to requests for the productinformation mailing.
.At the 0.05 significance level, can we conclude that thedifference in results was due to chance?
- Construct the 95% confidence level for the difference betweenpopulation proportions (π1 - π2).
- Identify and interpret the p-value for the test.
