A 95 percent confidence interval for the average miles per gallon for all cars of a certain type is 32.1, plus or minus 1.8. The interval is based on a sample of 40 randomly selected cars.
What units represent the margin of error?Suppose that you want to decrease the margin of error, but you want to keep 95 percent confidence. What should you do?
3. (i) Below is the R code for performing a X2 test on a 2×3 matrix of categorical
variables called TestMatrix:
chisq.test(Test Matrix)
(a) Assuming we have a significant result for this procedure, provide the R
code (including any required packages) for an appropriate post hoc test.
(b) If we were to apply this technique to a 2 × 2 case, how would we adapt
the code in order to perform the correct test?
(ii) What procedure can we use if we want to test for association when we
have ordinal variables? What code do we use in R to do this? What package
does this command belong to?
(iii) The following code contains the initial steps for a scenario where we are
looking to investigate the relationship between age and whether someone owns
a car by using frequencies. There are two issues with the code - please state
these.
Row3<-c(75,15)
