5. Researchers are investigating household-income level and whether the family owns their home or rents, in a particular city. They will consider the proportion of high-income households who own their home and the proportion of low-income households who own. They want to check whether the two categorical variables (income level and home-own-v.-rent) are related. Test at the 0.01 significance level.Table of number of households in each sub-category. Data Own Rent high-income 47 50 low-income 34 44 a) Identify the correct alternative hypothesis for this test. Household income level and home-ownership-v.-renting are independent. There is a relationship between household income level and home-ownership-v.-renting. There is no relationship between household income level and home-ownership-v.-renting. Household income level varies much more than home-ownership-v.-renting proportions. b) The χ2χ2test statistic value is:   c) The P-value is: d) Based on this, we Reject H0H0 Do not reject H0H0 e) Which means The two variables are mutually exclusive. There is definitely no relationship between the two variables. There is a significant relationship between the two variables. The data is not strong enough to support that there is a significant relationship between the two variables.

5. Researchers are investigating household-income level and whether the family owns their home or rents, in a particular city. They will consider the proportion of high-income households who own their home and the proportion of low-income households who own. They want to check whether the two categorical variables (income level and home-own-v.-rent) are related. Test at the 0.01 significance level.

Table of number of households in each sub-category.

Data Own Rent
high-income 47 50
low-income 34 44



a) Identify the correct alternative hypothesis for this test.

  • Household income level and home-ownership-v.-renting are independent.
  • There is a relationship between household income level and home-ownership-v.-renting.
  • There is no relationship between household income level and home-ownership-v.-renting.
  • Household income level varies much more than home-ownership-v.-renting proportions.



b) The χ2χ2test statistic value is:   

c) The P-value is: 

d) Based on this, we

  • Reject H0H0
  • Do not reject H0H0



e) Which means

  • The two variables are mutually exclusive.
  • There is definitely no relationship between the two variables.
  • There is a significant relationship between the two variables.
  • The data is not strong enough to support that there is a significant relationship between the two variables.
