In a random sample of 200 persons who skipped breakfast, 82 reported that they experienced midmorning fatigue, and in a random sample of 300 persons who ate breakfast, 87 reported that they experienced midmorning fatigue. Use the method of Exercise 12 and the 0.05 level of significance to test the null hypothesis that there is no difference between the corresponding population proportions against the alternative hypothesis that midmorning fatigue is more prevalent among persons who skip breakfast.
Exercise:
Given large random samples from two binomial populations, show that the null hypothesis θ1 = θ2 can be tested on the basis of the statistic
