4. (5 pts) Conduct a chi-square contingency test (test of independence) to assess whether
there is an association between the behavior of the elderly person (did not stop to talk,
did stop to talk) and their likelihood of falling. Below, please state your null and
alternative hypotheses, calculate your expected values and write them in the table,
compute the test statistic, test the null by comparing your test statistic to the critical
value in Table A (p. 713-714) of your textbook and/or estimating the P-value, and
provide your conclusions in written form. Make sure to show your work.

Contingency Analysis (Ch. 9)
In lab 5, part 3, you will create a mosaic plot and conducted a chi-square contingency test to
evaluate whether elderly patients who did not stop walking to talk (vs. those who did stop)
were more likely to suffer a fall in the next six months. I have tabulated the data below.
Answer the questions below. Please show your calculations on this or a separate sheet.

Let Y denote whether a subject convicted of murder received the death penalty (1=yes), for the defendant's race h (h1, black; h = 2, white), victim's race i (i = 1, black; i = 2, white), and number of additional factors j (j = 0, 1, 2). For the model logit[P(Y = 1)] = a + ß₁₂ + By + B²², they reported = -5.26, D â BD = 0, BD = 0.17, BY = 0, BY = 0.91, B = 0, B = 2.02, B = 3.98.

The savings obtained for each group of buyers are presented in the pdf that i sent: For this problem, we assume that the samples are random and come from two normal populations of unknown but equal variances.According to the theory, the average saving of buyers adopting a competitive strategy will be lower than that of buyers adopting a cooperative strategy.a) Specify the population identifications and the hypotheses H0 and H1…arrow_forwardYou assume that the annual incomes for certain workers are normal with a mean of $28,500 and a standard deviation of $2,400.
