a) No, there is not sufficient information to refuse hypothesis that proportion of cats and proportion of dogs which sleep more than 10 hours per day are same because test value -0.65 is inside acceptance region (-1.96,1.96).  

b) Yes, there is sufficient information to reject the hypothesis that the proportion of cats and the proportion of dogs that sleep more than 10 hours per day are the same because the test value -2.14 is outside the acceptance region (-1.96,1.96).  

c) No, there is not sufficient information to refuse hypothesis that the proportion of cats and the proportion of dogs that sleep more than 10 hours per day are the same because the test value -1.40 is inside the acceptance region (-1.96,1.96).  

 d) Yes, there is enough information to refuse hypothesis that proportion of cats and proportion of dogs which sleep more than 10 hours per day are the same because the test value -2.47 is outside the acceptance region (-1.96,1.96).
