I need help with these questions in homework. I also want to revise to make sure that they are correct /. In a study at West Virginia University Hospital, researchers investigated smoking behavior of cancer patients to make a program to help patients stop smoking. They published the results in Smoking Behaviors Among Cancer Survivors (January 2009 issue of the Journal of Oncology Practice.) In this study, the researchers sent a 22-item survey to 1,000 cancer patients. They collected demographic information (age, sex, ethnicity, zip code, level of education), clinical and smoking history, and information about quitting smoking.

The questionnaire filled out by cancer patients at West Virginia University Hospital also asked patients if they were current smokers. The current smoker rate for female cancer patients was 11.6%. 95 female respondents were included in the analysis. For male cancer patients, the current smoker rate was 10.4%, and 67 male respondents were included in the analysis. Suppose that these current smoker rates are the true parameters for all cancer patients. Can we use a normal model for the sampling distribution of differences in proportions?
