SCENARIO 12-13 Recent studies have found that American children are more obese than in the past.The amount of time children spent watching television has received much of the blame.A survey of 100 ten-year- olds revealed the following with regards to weights and average number of hours a day spent watching television.We are interested in testing whether the mean number of hours spent watching TV and weights are independent at 1% level of significance. Weights TV Hours Total 0-3 3-6 6+ More than 10 lbs. overweight 1 9 20 30 Within 10 lbs. of normal weight 20 15 15 50 More than 10 lbs. underweight 10 5 5 20 Total 31 29 40 100 -Referring to Scenario 12-13, how many children in the survey spend no more than 6 hours watching TV and are more than 10 lbs.underweight?
