A simple random sample of 100 flights Airline 1 showed that 64 were on time. A simple random sample of 100 flights of Airline 2 showed that 80 were on time. Let p1 and p2 be the proportions of all flights that are were time for these two airlines. Is there evidence of a difference in the on-time rate for the two airlines? To determine this, test the hypotheses H0: p1 = p2 versus Ha: p1 ≠ p2 at a...
