If you would like to eliminate the z-term, you can do this using the following steps:

x + z = 6 /*(-2)
3x + 2z = 1
_____________
-2x -2z = -12
3x + 2z = 1
_____________
-2x + 3x = -12 + 1
x = -11

The correct result would be x + z = 6 /*(-2).

Answer:

There is a significant difference between the two proportions.

Step-by-step explanation:

The (1 - α)% confidence interval for difference between population proportions is:

$CI=(\hat p_{1}-\hat p_{2})\pm z_{\alpha/2}\times\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_{1}(1-\hat p_{1})}{n_{1}}+\frac{\hat p_{2}(1-\hat p_{2})}{n_{2}}}$

Compute the sample proportions as follows:

$\hat p_{1}=\frac{80}{250}=0.32\\\\\hat p_{2}=\frac{40}{175}=0.23$

The critical value of z for 90% confidence interval is:

$z_{0.10/2}=z_{0.05}=1.645$

Compute a 90% confidence interval for the difference between the proportions of women in these two fields of engineering as follows:

$CI=(\hat p_{1}-\hat p_{2})\pm z_{\alpha/2}\times\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_{1}(1-\hat p_{1})}{n_{1}}+\frac{\hat p_{2}(1-\hat p_{2})}{n_{2}}}$

$=(0.32-0.23)\pm 1.645\times\sqrt{\frac{0.32(1-0.32)}{250}+\frac{0.23(1-0.23)}{175}}\\\\=0.09\pm 0.0714\\\\=(0.0186, 0.1614)\\\\\approx (0.02, 0.16)$

There will be no difference between the two proportions if the 90% confidence interval consists of 0.

But the 90% confidence interval does not consists of 0.

Thus, there is a significant difference between the two proportions.
