Consider a study where students are measured on whether they had an internship during their time at WKU (Y/N) and whether they had a job at graduation (Y/N). If we wanted to test whether having an internship was associated with having a job at graduation (i.e., internship holders were more likely to have jobs), why would the chi-square test be inappropriate for this hypothesis? How should we analyze our data?

Researchers interested in lead exposure due to car exhaust sampled the blood of 52 police officers subjected to constant inhalation of automobile exhaust fumes while working traffic enforcement in a primarily urban environment. The blood samples of these officers had an average lead concentration of 124.32 µg/l and a SD of 37.74 µg/l; a previous study of individuals from a nearby suburb, with no history of exposure, found an average blood level concentration of 35 µg/l. Based on your preceding result, without performing a calculation, would a 99% confidence interval for the average blood concentration level of police officers contain 35 µg/l? Based on your preceding result, without performing a calculation, would a 99% confidence interval for this difference contain 0? Explain why or why not.

Consider the following: In general, when people diet they typically lose 10 lbs. (?σ = 2). A random sample of 16 people on the keto diet lost 15 lbs. Do people on the keto diet lose more or less weight than people on diets in general? 4. What is the research hypothesis? a) Weight loss in the keto diet sample does not differ from weight loss in the population of dieters in general (H1: X-bar = Mu) b)Weight loss in the keto diet sample does differ from weight loss in the population of dieters in general (H1: X-bar = Mu) c) Weight loss in the keto diet sample does not differ from weight loss in the population of dieters in general (H1: X-bar does not equal Mu) d) Weight loss in the keto diet sample does differ from weight loss in the population of dieters in general (H1: X-bar does not equal Mu)
