Hope student researchers want to determine if students yawning (when being yawned at) is asso-ciated with the time of day (morning, afternoon, and evening). They found the following results when they yawned in front of people around campus:
• Morning: 25 of the 39 people yawned
• Afternoon: 15 of the 38 people yawned
• Evening: 29 of the 44 people yawned
-Which applet would you use to conduct a theory-based test of association between time of day and whether a person yawns?

Are people equally likely to be born on any day of the seven days of the week? Or are some days more likely to be a person's birthday than other days? To investigate this question, days of birth were recorded for the 147 "noted writers of the present" listed in The World Almanac and Book of Facts 2000. The counts for the seven days of the week are given in the following table.

Researchers analyzed eating behavior and obesity at Chinese buffets. They estimated people's body mass indexes (BMI) as they entered the restaurant then categorized them into three groups---bottom third (lightest), middle third, and top third (heaviest). One variable they looked at was whether or not they browsed the buffet (looked it over) before serving themselves or served themselves immediately. Treating the BMI categories as the explanatory variable and whether or not they browsed first as the response, the researchers wanted to see if there was an association between BMI and whether or not they browsed the buffet before serving themselves. They found the following results:
• Bottom Third: 35 of the 50 people browsed first
• Middle Third: 24 of the 50 people browsed first
• Top Third: 17 of the 50 people browsed first
-Based upon the p-value of 0.001, what is the appropriate conclusion for this test?

According to the 2019 U.S. Census Bureau estimates, 63.4% of the U.S. self-identifies as Non-Hispanic white, 15.3% as Hispanic and Latino, 13.4% as Black or African American, 5.9% as Asian, and 2.0% as Other. A random sample of 1000 students graduating from California colleges and universities resulted in the following data on self-identified race:
You would like to determine if the distribution of self-identified race among California college and university students differs from the distribution of self-identified race in the U.S. overall.

Can telling a joke affect whether or not a customer in a coffee bar leaves a tip for the waiter? A study investigated this question at a coffee bar in France. The waiter randomly assigned coffee-ordering customers into three groups: one received a card telling a joke with their bill, another group received a card containing an advertisement for a local restaurant, and the third received no card. The results are shown below.
