3) At the last census, 20% of the people in a town were less than 16 years old, 20% were 16-30, 25% were 31-45, 15% were 46-60, and 20% were over 60. To test to see if the age structure of the town has changed a random sample of 200 residents of the town yields the following results: Age: Observed Frequency 30 < 16 16-30 31-45 46-60 50 >60 31 37 52 Test to see if the age structure has changed (using the 5% level of significance).

Sample surveys on sensitive issues can give different results depending on how the question is asked. A University of Wisconsin study randomly divided 2400 respondents into three groups. All participants were asked if they had ever used cocaine. One group of 800 was interviewed by phone; 21% said they had used cocaine. Another 800 people were asked the question in a one-on-one personal interview; 25% said “Yes.” The remaining 800 were allowed to make an anonymous written response; 28% said “Yes.”101. Was this an experiment or an observational study? Justify your answer.2. Make a two-way table of responses about cocaine use by how the survey was administered.3. Are the differences between the three groups statistically significant? Give appropriate evidence to support your answer
