1. A consumer group claims that the mean annual consumption of cheddar cheese by a person in
the United States is at most 10.3 pounds. A random sample of 100 people in the United States has
a mean annual cheddar cheese consumption of 9.9 pounds. Assume the population standard
deviation is 2.1 pounds. At a = 0.05, can you reject the claim? (Adapted from U.S. Department of
Agriculture)
State the hypotheses:
Calculate the test statistic:
Calculate the P-value:
Conclusion (reject or fail to reject Ho):
2. The CEO of a manufacturing facility claims that the mean workday of the company's assembly
line employees is less than 8.5 hours. A random sample of 25 of the company's assembly line
employees has a mean workday of 8.2 hours. Assume the population standard deviation is 0.5
hour and the population is normally distributed. At a = 0.01, test the CEO's claim.

A psychology researcher conducted a Chi-Square Test of Independence to examine whether there is a relationship between college students’ year in school (Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, Senior) and their preferred coping strategy for academic stress (Problem-Focused, Emotion-Focused, Avoidance). The test yielded the following result:

Interpret the results of this analysis. In your response, clearly explain:
Whether the result is statistically significant and why.
What this means about the relationship between year in school and coping strategy.
What the researcher should conclude based on these findings.
