A sample of students from the University of Florida was surveyed on a variety of topics. The variable of interest for now is • life_after_death (whether the student believes in life after death: y = yes, n = no, u =unsure)
1. There are three possible responses for whether students believe in life after death. What are the null and alternative hypotheses for testing whether students believe in an afterlife at a rate greater than chance
2. What are the assumptions required for testing the hypotheses in (1)? Have they been satisfied? Justify
Homework Answers
1) Null Hypothesis- The proportion of students whose responses for the question- Do they believe in life after death Yes, No and Unsure are same that is responses are given by chance
Alternative Hypothesis - Proportion of students whose responses are Yes, No and Unsure are not same that is responses are not given by chance
3.) Sample should be large.
The responses of each student is independent of the other responses
The sample should be selected randomly

Radioactive fallout from testing atomic bombs drifted across a region. There were 220 people in the region at the time and 42 of them eventually died of cancer. Cancer experts estimate that one would expect only about 28 cancer deaths in a group this size. Assume the sample is a typical group of people. a) Is the death rate observed in the group unusually high? b) Does this prove that exposure to radiation increases the risk of cancer? Are the...
