Exit Ticket Task

Navigate to our MAT241 Exit Ticket Form, answer the questions, and complete the task below.

Note. Today’s discussion is listed as 17. Additional Inference Practice, III

Task: Describe the major differences between conducting inference on comparisons between two population parameters (ie. between two population means or two population proportions). Your response should address any procedural differences (is the “big picture” step-by-step process different?) and mechanical differences (what, if any, calculations must be handled differently?). You should also address differences in interpretations of results, particularly what a confidence interval or \(p\)-value refers to in each case.
