For a sample of 900 police officers at a local police department, a researcher believes there is a relationship between
"number of arrests per month" and "police use of force." Using the following data, test the null hypothesis at the .01 level
of significance that police use of force does not differ by the number of arrests per month that an officer makes. In so
doing, identify: (1) the research and null hypothesis, (2) the critical value needed to reject the null, (3) the decision that you
made upon analyzing the data, and (4) the conclusion you have drawn based on the decision you have made.
