- Q.2. The Xhang Corporation operates five clothing suppliers in China to provide merchandise for Nike. Nike recently sought information from the five plants. One variable for which data was collected was the total money (in U.S. Dollars) the company spent on medical support for its employees in the first three months of the year. Data on number of employees at the plants are shown. These data are as follows: Medical $7,400 $14,400 $12,300 $6,200 $3,100 Employees 123 402 256 109 67 (a).

The manager of the coffee shop suspects that the distribution of juice sales is different than the distribution of facings for each type of juice, so the manager records the sales of each juice over a two-week period. The proportion of facings and the sales for each type of juice are shown in the tables. Does the coffee shop owner have sufficient evidence to conclude that the distribution of sales is proportional to the number of facings at a 5 percent level of significance? Conduct the appropriate statistical test to support your conclusion.arrow_forward
