Textbook Question
Chapter 10.2, Problem 7E
Does It Make Sense? For Exercises 5–8, determine whether the statement makes sense (or is clearly true) or does not make sense (or is clearly false). Explain clearly. Not all of these statements have definitive answers, so your explanation is more important than your chosen answer.
7. χ2 Statistic. In a two-way table, all of the observed frequencies are lower than the expected frequencies, so the χ2 statistic is negative.

A researcher wishes to try three different techniques to lower the blood pressure of individuals diagnosed with high blood pressure. The subjects are randomly assigned to three groups; the first group takes medication, the second group exercises, and the third group follows a special diet. After four weeks, the reduction in each person’s blood pressure is recorded. At 0.05, test the claim that there is no difference among the means. The data are shown.

The closer the numerator of a t-test gets to zero, the more likely it is that there is no statistically significant difference between the two means we are testing.

- In recent years, some evidence suggests that high indoor radon concentration may be linked to the development of childhood cancers, but many health professionals remain unconvinced. The article “Indoor Radon and Childhood Cancer” (Lancet, 1991: 1537–1538) presented the accompanying data on radon concentration (Bq/m3) in two different samples of houses. The first sample consisted of houses in which a child diagnosed with cancer had been residing. Houses in the second sample had no recorded cases of childhood cancer. The data is represented by a stem-and-leaf display in figure 1. Stem and Leaf Display Draw a boxplot for both the samples on the same graph Indicate both kinds of outliers in both the samples.
