Question

Clinical tests of the allergy drug Seldane yielded the results summarized in the table below. At the 5%5% significance level, test to determine if there is a relationship between the use of the drug and the occurrence of headaches.   

 

  Seldane Users Placebo Users Control Total
Headache 42 56 60 158
No headache 760 682 635 2077
Total 802 738 695 2235

 

Perform a Chi-squared test in the following steps:

Step 1: State the null and alternative hypotheses:

 H0:H0:There is       between the use of the drug Seldane and the occurrence of headaches.

 H1:H1: There is       between the use of the drug Seldane and the occurrence of headaches.

Step 2: Find the critical value(s):

  1. State αα-value (in decimals) with the degree(s) of freedom, separated by a comma. 
  2. State the critical value(s): CV= (Do not round the table value.)

Step 3. State the rejection region:

  1. Which area(s) is/are rejection region(s)?      
  2. Reject H0H0 if test statistic value         the critical value(s). (Select >< if outside of two CV or <> if between two CV)

Step 4. Decision: If the test statistic for this question is 6.988, write the decision.

Since the test statistic is       the critical value, we     H0H0 at the 5% significance level.

Step 5. Write the conclusion statement:

There     sufficient evidence to conclude that there is       between the use of the drug Seldane and the occurrence of headaches.
