A table represents the possibility of an association between eye color and hair color. Hair Color Eye Color Brown Black Green 22 15 Blue 18 19 In order to determine if there is a significant difference between eye color and hair color, the chi-square test for association and independence should be performed.What is the expected frequency of Blue Eyes and Black Hair?
Let population 1 be drivers of age 25-34 and let population 2 be drivers of age 50-59. An insurance company collects data on seat-belt use among drivers in a country. Of 1900 drivers 25-34 years old, 19% said that they buckle up, whereas 487 of 1800 drivers 50-59 years old said that they did. At the 10% significance level, do the data suggest that there is a difference in seat-belt use between drivers 25-34 years old and those Use the two-proportions z-test to conduct the required hypothesis test. What are the hypotheses for this test?

Based on a recent study about language development, it is recommended children learn a second language when they are 10 years old. A linguist believes the average age children learn a second language is less than the age stated in the study. To test this claim, at the 2.5% significance level, the linguist collects the following data on a sample of 21 children learning a second language and records the age of when they started learning the second language. The following is the data from this study: Sample size =21 childrenSample mean =9.2 years oldSample standard deviation =2.5 years old Identify the null and alternative hypothesis for this study by filling in the blanks with the correct symbol (=,≠,<, or > to represent the correct hypothesis.) Provide your answer below: null hypothesis : $\mu$μ 10 alternative hypothesis : $\mu$μ 10
An author argues that more American-born baseball players have birth dates in the months immediately following July 31 because that was the age cutoff date for nonschool baseball leagues. The table below lists months of births for a sample of American-bom baseball players and foreign-bom baseball players. Using a 0.05 significance level, is there sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that months of births of baseball players are independent of whether they are born in America? Do the data appear to support the author's claim? Jan. Feb. March April May June July Aug. Sept. Oct. Nov.

A case control study was conducted to investigate a relationship between the colors of helmets worn by motorcycle drivers and whether they are injured or killed in a crash. Results are given in the accompanying table. Using a .01 significance level, test the claim that injuries are independent of helmet color.

Color and Creativity Researchers from the University of British Columbia conducted trials to investigate the effects of color on creativity. Subjects with a red background were asked to think of creative uses for a brick; other subjects with a blue background were given the same task. Responses were scored by a panel of judges and results from scores of creativity are given below. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that creative task scores have the same variation with a red background and a blue background.
A study of seat belt users and nonusers yielded the randomly selected sample data summarized in the accompanying table. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the amount of smoking is independent of seat belt use. A plausible theory is that people who smoke are less concerned about their health and safety and are therefore less inclined to wear seat belts. Is this theory supported by the sample data?
