Comparing Two Independent Population Proportions · Exercise 4

Use the following information for the next five exercises. Two types of phone operating system are being tested to determine if there is a difference in the proportions of system failures (crashes). Fifteen out of a random sample of 150 phones with OS_1 had system failures within the first eight hours of operation. Nine out of another random sample of 150 phones with OS_2 had system failures within the first eight hours of operation. OS_2 is believed to be more stable (have fewer crashes) than OS_1.
