A researcher wanted to check whether the percentage of Canadian adults with obesity has decreased in 2009 compared to 2005. He used Health Canada data. He randomly selected 85 Canadian adults from 2005 data and found 13 of them are obese; In a random sample of 75 Canadian adults from 2009 data, he found 10 of them are obese. He wants to develop a 94% confidence interval for the change is obese percentage. Let population1 be 2005 data and population2 be 2009 data. Write down the critical value.
Contingency Table
A contingency table can be defined as the visual representation of the relationship between two or more categorical variables that can be evaluated and registered. It is a categorical version of the scatterplot, which is used to investigate the linear relationship between two variables. A contingency table is indeed a type of frequency distribution table that displays two variables at the same time.
