In a September 2013 poll conducted by the Pew Research Center, they asked a random sample of U.S. adults if they owned a cellphone. The results are shown in the following table by race.

a. What proportion in each race category owns a cellphone?
b. Does there seem to be an association between race and whether or not someone owns a cellphone?
c. Write out the null and alternative hypotheses for this study.
d. The table for these results can be found in the file Cellphone Race. Put that table in the Multiple Proportions applet (make sure you click on Use Table). What is the value of the MAD statistic?
e. Do at least 1,000 repetitions and find a p-value.
f. Based on your p-value, do you have strong evidence that there is an association between race and whether or not someone owns a cellphone?
