You can put this solution on YOUR website! A study was performed at a university to analyze whether the preference for hamburgers or fried chicken is related to the gender of the student. This table lists the results of the study. At = .01, test the claim that the meal preference and the gender of the student are not related.
Hamburgers Fried Chicken
Female:::::: 12::::28
Male:::::::: 16::::22
-----------------------------
Ho: row and column factors are independent
Ha: they are not independent
----------------
I ran a Chi-Sq Test on the 2 by 2 array and go the following:
Test Statistic: Chi-Sq = 1.2410
p-value = 0.2653
Since the p-value is greater than 1%, fail to reject Ho.
Conclusion: Row and Column factors are independent.
