State the type of hypothesis test to be used in the following situation: Researchers hoped to determine whether time spent watch
ing television is associated with cardiovascular fitness. Subjects were asked how many hours per day they watch television and were classified as physically fit if they scored in the excellent or very good category on a step test. The data obtained is as follows: Physically Fit Not Physically Fit 0 hours 35 147 1-2 hours 101 629 3-4 hours 28 222 5 or more hours 4 34 Determine if the association the researchers were interested in exists or not.
t-test can be used to determine signifiance in difference in slopes of of fit vs time and not fit vs time graph
The data shows that as number of hours spent watchnig television increases, there is no increasing or decreasing trend in number of people fit or not fit. The number of people fit or not fit seems to be distributed around 629 for 1-2 hours of watching television. There trend is not consistent in both cases with increasing number of hours
