HPV Vaccine. In the article "Correlates for Completic 3-dose Regimen of HPV Vaccine in Female Members of a Man Care Organization" (Mayo Clinical Proceedings, Vol. 84, Pp. 870 ), C. Chao et al. examined factors that may influence wh young female patients complete a three-injection sequence of the dasil quadrivalent human papillomavirus vaccine (HPV4). HPV virus that has been linked to the development of cervical cancer. following contingency table summarizes the data obtained for ' pletion of treatment versus practice type.

In each of the given Exercises, we have presented a contingency table that gives a cross-classification of a random sample of values for two variables, x, and y, of a population. For each exercise, perform the following tasks.
a. Find the expected frequencies. Note: You will first need to compute the row totals, column totals, and grand total.
b. Determine the value of the chi-square statistic.
c. Decide at the 5% significance level whether the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the two variables are associated.
