Workers and senior-level bosses were asked if it was seriously unethical to monitor employee e-mail. The results are summarized in the table to the right. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the response is independent of whether the subject is a worker or a boss. Yes No Assuming independence between the two variables, find the expected frequency for each cell of the table.

Null and Alternative Hypotheses
The following null and alternative hypotheses need to be tested:
H0: The two variables are independent
Ha: The two variables are dependent
This corresponds to a Chi-Square test of independence.
Rejection Region
Based on the information provided, the significance level is α=0.05 , the number of degrees of freedom is df=(2−1)×(2−1)=1, so then the rejection region for this test is R={χ2:χ2>3.841}.
Test Statistics
The Chi-Squared statistic is computed as follows:
The decision about the null hypothesis
Since it is observed that χ2=4.38>χc2=3.841, it is then concluded that the null hypothesis is rejected.
Conclusion
It is concluded that the null hypothesis Ho is rejected. Therefore, there is enough evidence to claim that the two variables are dependent, at the 0.05 significance level.
The corresponding p-value for the test is p=Pr(χ12>4.38)=0.0364.

A survey of 445 workers showed that 140 said it was unethical to monitor employee e-mail. When 110 senior-level bosses were surveyed, 41 said it was unethical to monitor employee e-mail. At the 10% significance level, do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the proportion of workers that say monitoring employee e-mail is unethical is less than the proportion of bosses? Use the two-proportions z-test to conduct the required hypothesis test. Let population 1 be workers, and let...
