Do men and women prefer the same colors of cars? That is, is sex independent of color preference for cars? Suppose a study is undertaken to address this question. A random sample of men and women are asked which of five colors (silver, white, and black, green, blue) they prefer in a car. The results as analyzed using Minitab are shown here. Discuss the test used, the hypotheses, the findings, and the businessimplications.
