A recent study of 100 individuals found the following living arrangements for men and women. Can it be concluded that there is a dependent relationship between gender and living arrangements at the α = 0.025 level of significance. Use the chi-square test of independence.
suppose you and a friend each take different random samples of data pairs (x,y) from the same popuation. Assumethe samples are the same size. Based on your samples, you compute r=0.83. Based on her sample, your friend computes r=0.79. Is your friends value for r wrong?
