Effect of sample size. The purpose of this next problem is to see the effects of differing sample sizes in a chi-square test. Assume that the observed proportions for a 2-way contingency table arc as given below Complete the following table assuming (a) that the total number of observations is 10 and (b) that the total number of observation is 100. Be sure to show your work.
