Assessments of TV Shows
Because of the cost of producing television shows and the profits associated with successful shows,television network executives are keenly interested in public opinion.A network has recently developed three comedy series.The pilot of each series is shown in to 10 randomly selected people who evaluate each show on a 9-point scale where 1 = terrible and 9 = excellent.The results are shown below.

Coffee
A supermarket chain has its own house brand of coffee.The general manager claims that their coffee is better than the coffee sold by a well-known Coffee Shop chain.To test the claim 40 individuals are randomly selected to participate in the following experiment.Each respondent is given the two brands of coffee to taste (without any identification)and asked to judge which one is better.Suppose that 25 people judge the Coffee Shop chain brand better,four say that the brands taste the same,and the rest claim that the supermarket brand is better.
-{Coffee Narrative} Can we conclude at the 1% significance level that the general managers' claim is false?

Song Ratings
A music critic wanted to determine whether or not music listeners of different age groups evaluate a song differently.With this objective,he commissioned a survey that asked people their ratings of the most popular songs.The rating categories were: 1 = terrible,2 = fair,3 = good,and 4 = excellent.Each respondent was also asked to categorize his or her age as either: 1 = teenager,2 = young adult (20-34),3 = middle age (35-50),and 4 = over 50.
The results are shown below.
Song Ratings Teenager Young Adult Middle Age Senior 3 2 3 3 4 3 2 4 3 3 1 4 3 2 2 3 3 2 2 3 4 1 3 4 2 3 1 4 4 2 4 3
