Question

A researcher interested in personal health habits asked a random sample of 3074 people how many times they usually worked out per week, and their level of educational attainment.



(a) Which hypotheses should they test?

-H0: Number of weekly workouts is related to educational attainment vs. Ha: Number of weekly workouts is not related to educational attainment

-H0: p1 = p2 = p3 = p4 = 1/4 vs. Ha: at least one of the p's is different from 1/4     

-H0: Number of weekly workouts is not related to educational attainment vs. Ha: Number of weekly workouts is related to educational attainment

-H0: p1 = p2 = p3 = 1/3 vs. Ha: at least one of the p's is different from 1/3



(b) The test statistic is 14.150. What is the P-value? (Use 3 decimals.)  

(c) What is the appropriate conclusion for = 0.05?

-Reject H0. There is insufficient evidence to claim the number of weekly workouts is related to educational attainment.

-Don't reject H0. There is sufficient evidence to claim the number of weekly workouts is related to educational attainment.     

-Reject H0. There is sufficient evidence to claim the number of weekly workouts is related to educational attainment.

-Don't reject H0. There is insufficient evidence to claim the number of weekly workouts is related to educational attainment.
