Do you use cocaine? Sample surveys on sensitive issues can give differentresults depending on how the question is asked. A University of Wisconsin studydivided 2400 respondents into 3 groups at random. All were asked if they hadever used cocaine. One group of 800 was interviewed by phone; 21% said theyhad used cocaine. Another 800 people were asked the question in a one-on-one personal interview; 25% said Yes. The remaining 800 were allowed to make ananonymous written response; 28% said Yes. 14 Are there statistically significantdifferences among these proportions? State the hypotheses, convert theinformation given into a two-way table of counts, give the test statistic and itsP-value, and state your conclusions.
