A researcher notes that there seems to be a difference in the prevalence of diabetics who smoke and consume diets hign in processed food and the prevalence of diabetics who do not smoke and do not consume diets high in processed foods.  Use the appropriate hypothesis to test for independence of two independent variables presented here at the 5% significance level to ensure comfounding has not influcenced the study's results.  Then interpret your response.

Multiple choice answers: 
 
The chi-square value of 158.652 is higher than the chi-square value of 3.84, therefore we can accept H0 at the 5% level and reject H1, which states that smoking status and the amount of processed foods in an individual’s diet are not independent of one another.
 
The chi-square value of 158.652 is higher than the chi-square value of 3.84, therefore we can accept H0 at the 5% level and reject H1, which states that smoking status and the incidence of diabetes are not independent of one another.
