Chapter 11: Q.58 (page 730)

Which of the following explains why one of the conditions for performing the chi-square test is met in this case?

(a) The sample is large, 4877teenagers in all.

(b) The sample is random.

(c) All the observed counts are greater than 100.

(d) We used software to do the calculations.

(e) Both variables are categorical.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The options (b),(c) and (e) are satisfied here.

Step by step solution

01

Given Information

The conditions for performing the chi-square test are met in this case.

02

Explanation

The Chi-square test is determined based on the following conditions are being met:

1) The sampling method used mainly is simple random sampling.

2) The variable under study is categorical

3) The expected value of the number of samples in each level of the variable is at least 5.

Here, the sample is random, all observed counts are greater than 100 and both variables are categorical.

So, all the conditions are met and the chi-square test can be performed.

Therefore, options (b), (c), and (e) are satisfied here.

Some people think recycled products are lower in quality than other products, a fact that makes recycling less practical. Here are data on attitudes toward coffee filters made of recycled paper from a random sample of adults:

(a) Make a bar graph that compares buyers鈥� and non-buyers鈥� opinions about recycled filters. Describe what you see

(b) Minitab output for a chi-square test using these data is shown below. Carry out the test. What conclusion do you draw?

Average ratings (1.3,10.2)The students decided to compare the average ratings of the cafeteria food on the two scales.

(a) Find the mean and standard deviation of the ratings for the students who were given the 1-to-5scale.

(b) For the students who were given the 1-to-5scale, the ratings have a mean of 3.21and a standard deviation of 0.568. Since the scales differ by one point, the group decided to add 1to each of these ratings. What are the mean and standard deviation of the adjusted ratings?

(c) Would it be appropriate to compare the means from parts (a) and (b) using a two-sample t-test? Justify your answer

HousingAccording to the Census Bureau, the distribution by ethnic background of the New York City population in a recent year was

The manager of a large housing complex in the city wonders whether the distribution by the race of the complex鈥檚 residents is consistent with the population distribution. To 铿乶d out, she records data from a random sample of 800residents. The table below displays the sample data

Are these data signi铿乧antly different from the city鈥檚 distribution by race? Carry out an appropriate test at the 伪=0.05level to support your answer. If you 铿乶d a signi铿乧ant result, perform follow-up analysis.

Does eating chocolate trigger headaches? To find out, women with chronic headaches followed the same diet except for eating chocolate bars and carob bars that looked and tasted the same. Each subject ate both chocolate and carob bars in random order with at least three days between. Each woman then reported whether or not she had a headache within 12hours of eating the bar. Here is a two-way table of the results for the 64subjects:

The researchers carried out a chi-square test on this table to see if the two types of bar differ in triggering headaches. Explain why this test is incorrect.

The conditions for carrying out the chi-square test in exercise T11.2 are

Which of the conditions is (are) satisfied in this case?

(a) I only

(d) Il and III only

(b) II only

(e) I, II, and III

(c) I and II only
