1. The incidence of cancer among phosphate mine workers and their exposure to radiation was investigated. Cancer incidence was recorded among 60 phosphate mine workers who had 0-29 working level months (WLM) of exposure, 60 phosphate mine workers who had 30-89 WLM of exposure, and 60 phosphate mine workers who had 90-120 WLM of exposure. The number of cancer incidences for each group are presented in Table 1. Table 1: Two-way Table of Counts Cancer Incidence Exposure Level Yes No Total 0-29 WLM 20 40 60 30-89 WLM 33 27 60 90-120 WLM 43 17 60 Total 96 84 180 Perform a x? test, at the 5% level of significance, whether cancer incidence rates differ between the three levels of radiation among phosphate mine workers.
