(a) Is it reasonable to conclude that there is an association
between gender and the number of vacation days taken?
Test the appropriate hypotheses using a 0.05 significance level.
Calculate the test statistic. (Round your answer to two decimal
places.)
χ2 =
P-value interval
p < 0.0010.001 ≤ p < 0.01 0.01 ≤ p < 0.050.05 ≤ p < 0.10p ≥ 0.10
There is ---Select--- enough evidence not enough
evidence to conclude that there is an association between gender
and the number of vacation days taken.
(b) To what population would it be reasonable to generalize this
conclusion?
all working adultsall adults working adults in Canadaonly male working adultsonly female working adults
