ANSWER ASAP PLEASE
A researcher is interested in whether gender affects the
probability of being arrested. They gather a random sample of 3996
women and find that 801 of them have been arrested. This compares
to 1808 men arrested from a random sample of 4155 men.
The researcher
also believes that ethnicity might affect the probability of arrest
and obtains the following data
Black
Hispanic
non-black/non-Hispanic
mixed race/non-Hispanic
number arrested
794
534
29
1252
number not arrested
1384
1210
49
2899
d) Is the probability of being arrested
independent of ethnicity? [10 marks]
e) How would we go about testing whether a
particular ethnic group is different from the others? [5
marks]
f) How would we test whether the probability of
being arrested is affected independently by both gender and
ethnicity? What about testing for whether the effect of gender is

g) Why might this analysis give us the wrong
answer about the relationship between ethnicity, gender and the
probability of arrest? [5 marks]
