The human papillomavirus associated with the development of cervical cancer, genital warts, and some less common cancers. John Hopkins conducted a study to investigate the characteristics of female patients who came to their clinics between 2006 and 2008 to begin the three-shot regimen of vaccinations with the anti-human papillomavirus (HPV) medication Gardasil. A contingency table summarizing the vaccine completions by race for 1222 patients is provided below. 1.State the null and alternative hypotheses. 2.Compute the test statistic. Compute the test statistic. Document how the expected counts and the value of the test statistic are computed and enter them into the table and input box provided. Round the expected counts to 3 decimal places and the test statistic to 2 decimal places. 3.Compute the p-value. Provide the name of the distribution and the parameters used to compute the p-value. Then enter your anwer rounded to 4 decimal places. 4.Interpret the results of the significance…
