For the past few years the proportion of boxes they sell of each size has been quite stable: 10% Small, 15% Medium, 60% Large, and 15% Jumbo. They decide to change the pricing of the four sizes and want to see if this changes the proportion of boxes they sell of each size. To test this, a few weeks after changing the prices they take a simple random sample of 120 transactions involving corn flakes and count how many boxes of each size were sold. Here are the results. (1a) Which chi-square test is appropriate in this setting? Explain your reasoning. (1b) State the appropriate hypotheses for performing a chi-square test in this setting (1c) Discuss whether the conditions for this test have been met. (1d) The chi-square test statistic is 2 9.514.

Research suggests this might be true. The table below gives the birth seasons of 400 randomly selected people who are allergic to dust mites, along with the expected proportion of people born in each season. Do these data provide convincing evidence that people who suffer from this allergy have a different birth season distribution? Birth Season Winter Spring Summer Fall Number of allergy sufferers 107 145 105 133 Proportion of births in general population 0.30 0.22 0.24 0.24
