A chi-square test for homogeneity was conducted to investigate whether the four high schools in a school district have different absentee rates for each of four grade levels. The chi-square test statistic and p-value of the test were 19.02 and 0.025, respectively. Which of the following is the correct interpretation of the p-value in the context of the test? a Assuming that each high school has a different absentee rate for each grade level, there is a 2.5 percent chance of finding a test statistic 19.02 or larger. b Assuming that each high school has the same absentee rate for each grade level, there is a 2.5 percent chance of finding a test statistic 19.02 or smaller. c Assuming that each high school has the same absentee rate for each grade level, there is a 2.5 percent chance of finding a test statistic 19.02 or larger. d There is a 2.5 percent chance that the absentee rate for each grade level at the four schools is the same. e There is a 2.5…
