STAT*2060DE FQuestions for Assignment #7Assignment #7 is another D2L quiz. All of the calculations are possible by hand, but somemay be lengthy. You may want to carry out some of these procedures on a computer.Excel, S-Plus, R, various other statistical software and web applets can do the calculationsfor you. Chi-square tests are relatively straightforward, but the calculations can becomelong and burdensome.N.B. If you use a computer, DO NOT use Yates’ continuity correction, which is given asan option in many statistical packages (we do not use it in the notes, and we have to allget the same answer)**Give your final answer to at least 3 decimal places where applicable.
