The national sleep foundation used a survey to determine whether hours of sleeping per night are independent of age.  The following show the hours of sleep on weeknights for a sample of individuals age 49 and younger and for a sample of individuals age 50 and older.

6 to 6.9

7 to 7.9

8 or more

a. Conduct a test of independence to determine whether the hours of sleep on weeknights are independent of age. Use α =.05 what is the p-value and what is your conclusion.

b. What IS your estimate of the percentage of people who sleep fewer than 6hours, 6 to 6.9 hours, 7 to 7.9 hours and 8 or more hours on weeknights?
