Several people from different ethnicities were asked whether we should reopen public schools in the wake of COVID-19. The opinions were as follows: Favor Oppose Neutral Black 23 ( ) 18 ( ) 11 ( ) Hispanic 26 ( ) 32 ( ) 5 ( ) White 18 ( ) 24 ( ) 15 ( ) Can we say that opinion is independent of ethnicity? (Use a = .05) Type of Test: Hypotheses: P-value = Decision: In a sentence, what does your decision mean? Place the expected numbers of people in the respective parentheses. Round to the nearest whole person.

Car License Plates California, Connecticut, and New York are states with laws requiring that cars have license plates on the front and rear. The author randomly selected cars in those states and the results are given in the accompanying table. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim of independence between the state and whether a car has front and rear license plates. Does it appear that the license plate laws are followed at the same rates in the three states?

An investigator thinks that people under the age of forty have vocabularies that are different thanthose of people over sixty years of age. The investigator administers a vocabulary test to a groupof 5 younger subjects and to a group of 5 older subjects. Higher scores reflect betterperformance. The vocabulary test’s results are given below: Group 1 (5 younger subjects) Group 2 (5 older subjects) 10 77 93 104 85 5 By using 1% level of significance test that people under the age of forty have vocabularies aredifferent than those of people over sixty years of age.

A survey was conducted to determine whether hours of sleep per night are independent of age. A sample of individuals was asked to indicate the number of hours of sleep per night with categorical options: fewer than 6 hours, 6 to 6.9 hours, 7 to 7.9 hours, and 8 hours or more. Later in the survey, the individuals were asked to indicate their age with categorical options: age 39 or younger and age 40 or older. Sample data follow. Age Group Hours of Sleep 39 or younger 40 or older Fewer than 6 38 36 6 to 6.9 60 57 7 to 7.9 76 74 8 or more 66 93 (a) Conduct a test of independence to determine whether hours of sleep are independent of age. (b) What is your estimate of the percentages of individuals who sleep fewer than 6 hours, 6 to 6.9 hours, 7 to 7.9 hours, and 8 hours or more per night?
