Which of the following is not true with regard to contingency tables for chi-square tests for independence?
A
Categorical rather than quantitative variables are being considered.

An electronics store sales representative believes men and women have different preferences with regard to TV sizes. To test his belief, he shows models of four different TVs with different sizes to a random sample of 80 men and a random sample of 70 women. He plans to use a chi-square test of homogeneity. Assuming that conditions for inference are met, which of the following is a true statement?
A
The test is not valid because the sample sizes are different.
B
The test would be more appropriate if 75 married couples had been used.
C
Given the number of choices, four, the sample sizes are too small for a test of homogeneity of proportions.
D
The null hypothesis is that the proportion of each gender who prefer each TV is \(\dfrac{1}{4}\).

One survey of what middle school and high school students enjoy reading listed the top four choices as fantasy, science fiction, horror, and fairy tales. To test whether middle school and high school students make similar choices, independent random samples are taken from each group of students. Each student is asked what he/she enjoys reading most among the choices: fantasy, science fiction, horror, fairy tales, or other. A chi-square test of homogeneity is performed, and the resulting P-value is below 0.05. Which of the following is a proper conclusion?
A
There is sufficient evidence that for all five choices, the proportion of middle school students who prefer each choice is equal to the corresponding proportion of high school students.
B
There is sufficient evidence that the proportion of middle school students who prefer science fiction is different from the proportion of high school students who prefer science fiction.
C
There is sufficient evidence that for all five choices, the proportion of middle school students who prefer each choice is different from the corresponding proportion of high school students.
D
There is sufficient evidence that for at least one of the five choices, the proportion of middle school students who prefer that choice is equal to the corresponding proportion of high school students.
E
There is sufficient evidence that for at least one of the five choices, the proportion of middle school students who prefer that choice is different from the corresponding proportion of high school students.
