A researcher notes that there seems to be a difference in the prevalence of high blood pressure among college-educated individuals who consume low amounts of processed foods and the prevalence of individuals who only have a high school education and consume high amounts of processed foods. A) The chi square value of 37.724 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 level of education and the amount of processed foods in an individual’s diet are not independent of one another. B) The chi square value of 37.724 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 level of education and the incidence of high blood pressure are not independent of one another. C) The chi square value of 37.724 is higher than the chi square value of 3.84; therefore, we can reject H0 at the 5% level in favor of H1, which states that level of education and the incidence of high blood pressure are not independent of one another. D) The chi square value of 37.724 is higher than the chi square value of 3.84; therefore, we can reject H0at the 5% level in favor of H1, which states that level of education and the amount of processed foods in an individual’s diet are not independent of one another. To examine two independent variables how would you aggregate the charts below?
