A person drilled a hole in a die and filled it with a lead weight, then proceeded to roll it 200 times. Here are the observed frequencies for the outcomes of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6, respectively: 29,31,46, 40, 26, 28. Use a 0.025 significance level to test the claim that the outcomes are not equally likely. Does it appear that the loaded die behaves differently than a fair die?

A sociologist is studying the age of the population in Blue Valley. Ten years ago, the population was such that 19% were under 20 years old, 14% were in the 20- to 35-year-old bracket, 33% were between 36 and 50, 23% were between 51 and 65, and 11% were over 65. A study done this year used a random sample of 210 residents. This sample is given below.
