Suppose a sporting goods store sold treadmills, exercise bikes, and equipment service contracts over the past six months as shown in the table below.

Equipment and Service Contract Sales

Treadmill

Exercise Bike

Equipment Sales

195

133

Service Contract Sales

77

65

The store can only sell a service contract on a new piece of equipment. Of the 195 treadmills sold, 77 included a service contract and 118 did not.

Respond to the following in a Word document and submit:

1. Construct a 95 percent confidence interval for the difference between the proportions of service contracts sold on treadmills versus exercise bikes.

2. Determine if there is or is not a major difference between the two pieces of equipment and provide a rationale for your response.
