7.3-9. Consider the following two groups of women: Group 1 consists of women who spend less than $500\$ 500 annually on clothes; Group 2 comprises women who spend over $1000\$ 1000 annually on clothes. Let p1p_1 and p2p_2 equal the proportions of women in these two groups, respectively, who believe that clothes are too expensive. If 1009 out of a random sample of 1230 women from group 1 and 207 out of a random sample 340 from group 2 believe that clothes are too expensive, (a) Give a point estimate of p1−p2p_1-p_2.
