A survey of entrepreneurs focused on their job characteristics, work habits, social activities, leisure time, etc. One question put to each entrepreneur was, "What make of car (U.S., Europe, or Japan)do you drive?" The responses (number in each category) for a sample of 100 entrepreneurs are summarized below. The goal of the analysis is to determine if the proportions of entrepreneurs Who drive American, European, and Japanese cars differ. U.S. Europe Japan 40 35 25 In order to determine whether the true proportions in each response category differ, a one-way chi-square analysis should be conducted. Suppose the p-value for the test was calculated to be p=0.1738\mathrm { p } = 0.1738 . What is the appropriate conclusion to make when testing at α=0.10\alpha = 0.10 ?

Inc. Technology reported the results of consumer survey in which 300 Internet users indicated their level of agreement with the following statement: "The government needs to be able to scan Internet messages and user communications to prevent fraud and other crimes." The possible responses were "agree strongly", "agree somewhat", "disagree somewhat", and "disagree strongly". The number of Internet users in each category is summarized in the table. RESPONSE NUMBER Agree Strongly 60 Agree Somewhat 110 Disagree Somewhat 80 Disagree Strongly 50 In order to determine whether the true proportions of Internet users in each response category differ, a one-way chi-square analysis should be conducted. When calculating the test statistic, what values for the expected counts should be used in the calculation?

Economists at USF are researching the problem of absenteeism at U.S. firms. A random sample of 100 U.S. organizations was selected to participate in a 1-year study. As part of the study, the economists had collected data on the following two variables for each company: shiftwork available (Yes or No), and union-management relationship (Good or Poor). As part of their analyses, the economists wanted to determine whether or not a company makes shiftwork available depends on the relationship between union and management. The collected data are Shown below: Relation Shiftwork Good Bad Total No 11 22 33 Yes 25 42 67 Total 36 64 100 In order to determine whether the shiftwork responses depend on the relationship responses, a two-way chi-square analysis should be conducted. When calculating the test statistic, what values for the expected counts should be used in the calculation?

A business professor conducted a campus survey to estimate demand among all students for a protein supplement for smoothies and other nutritional drinks. Each of 113 students, randomly selected from all students on campus, provided the following information: (1) How health conscious are you? (Very, Moderately, Slightly, Not very) (2) Do you prefer protein supplements in your smoothies? (Yes, No) As part of his analysis, the professor claims that whether or not the student prefers a protein supplement in smoothies is independent of health consciousness level (Very, Moderate, Slightly, or not very).
