You can put this solution on YOUR website! A study regarding the relationship between age and the amount of pressure sales personnel
feel in relation to their jobs revealed the following sample information. At the .01 significance
level, is there a relationship between job pressure and age?
Degree of Job Pressure
Age (years)... Low Medium High
Less than 25... 20.. 18... 22
25 up to 40.... 50.. 46... 44
40 up to 60.... 58.. 63... 59
60 and older... 34.. 43... 43
----------------------------
Ho: job pressure and age are independent
Ha: job pressure and age are dependent
------------
I ran a Chi-Sq Test on a TI calculator to get:
Test statistic: Chi-Sq = 2.09848...
p-value = 0.9104219...
df = (4-1)(3-1) = 6
------------------------
Conclusion: Since p-value is greater than alpha = 1%, Fail
to Reject Ho. The test gives evidence that job pressure
and age are independent
