2. Who supports gun control laws more: females or males? Data were collected from a sample of 980 people. We see that 379 of the 460 females in the sample support gun control laws, while 318 of the 520 males in the sample support gun control laws. We will investigate the difference in proportions of females and males who support gun control laws. (This dataset is preloaded in Statkey.) a) What parameter are we trying to estimate? Give correct notation and a brief written description. b) What is the best point estimate for the difference in the proportions of gun control law supporters? Use correct notation and include the value. c) Find a 99% bootstrap confidence interval using the Percentile Method Include a screen shot of your StatKey output. 99% CI: d) Find a 95% bootstrap confidence interval using the Standard Error Method (show calculations based on bootstrap estimate of standard error as shown in graph from previous step): 95% CI e) Interpret the 95% confidence interval. Be sure to include both parts in your interpretation since we are comparing two parameters. (See lecture notes for examples of two-part interpretations.)
