Question:
a. Identify the 20 possible samples that could have been selected. Explain why the contingency table relating gender to whether chosen for the observed sample is
b. Let 1 denote the sample proportion of males selected and 2 the sample proportion of females. For the observed table, 1 €“ 2 = (2/3) - (1/3) = 1/3. Of the 20 possible samples, show that 10 have 1 €“ 2 ‰¥ 1/3. (If the three managers were randomly selected, the probability would equal 10/20 = 0.50 of obtaining 1 €“ 2 ‰¥ 1/3. This is the reasoning that provides the one-sided P-value for Fisher€™s exact test with Ha: p1 > p2.)
