Answer 1

Note : As HOMEWORKLIB policy, if a post contains more than one distinct questions, we should solve the first question or the question number suggested by the student.

Solving the question 1.

Grand Total of frequencies = 326
To find Expected Frequencies
Expected Frequencies = (Row Total * Column Total)/Grand Total

Expected Frequencies (E)	White	Black
Yes	17.6687	18.3313
No	142.3313	147.6687

Following table gives the value of (Observed - Expected)² / Expected

	White	Black
Yes	0.1003	0.0967
No	0.0125	0.012

Chi Square Value = ∑[(Observed - Expected)² / Expected]

χ² = 0.221

Answer :

The Chi-square is

• 0.221
