Selecting the Appropriate Inferential Test: For each of the studies below, please identify the following (or indicate N/A "not applicable" if the feature is not relevant to the design): a) Independent Variable(s) (IVs) and # of levels for any IVs (for Correlation/Regression, identify the predictor and predicted variable rather than IV and DV) b) Dependent Variable (DV) c) Scale of Measurement for the Dependent Variable: (Nominal, Ordinal, Interval, Ratio) for Correlation/Regression please make sure you identify the scale of measurement for both variables d) Appropriate Statistical Test (If it is a Factorial ANOVA, make sure to name the design: e.g., 2 X 2, 2 X 3, etc.)

Thirty-five percent of the cars in Israel are new. Out of the new cars, 60% are white. Overall, 45% of the cars in Israel are white. If event A is “New” and event B is “White”, which of the following is correct? a. There is not enough data to answer the question. b. Events A and B are dependent. c. Events A and B are independent d. Event A and B are mutually exclusive.
In the city of Savannah, Georgia, 22% of young couples take wedding pictures along the Riverwalk (R), and 42% of young couples take wedding pictures in one of the many historical squares (S) throughout the city. However, only 14% of young couples take wedding pictures along the Riverwalk and in the squares. Are these two events independent of each other? Include the reason why or why not. A. The events aren't independent, because P(R) × P(S) ≠ P(P and S). B. The events are independent, because P(R) × P(S) ≠ P(P and S). C. The events aren't independent, because P(R) × P(S) = P(P and S). D. The events are independent, because P(R) × P(S) = P(P and S)
