The operations manager of a company that manufactures tires wants to determine whether there are any differences in the quality of workmanship among the three daily shifts. She randomly selects 499 tires and carefully inspects them. Each tire is either classified as perfect, satisfactory, or defective, and the shift that produced it is also recorded. The two categorical variables of interest are: shift and condition of the tire produced. The data can be summarized by the accompanying two-way table.   Perfect Satisfactory Defective Total Shift 1 106 124 2 232 Shift 2 66 85 3 154 Shift 3 36 74 3 113 Total 208 283 8 499 A) This sample has degree of freedom:��= If shift and quality are independent, thenB) With any expected count accurate to 2 decimal places, the expected count in row 1 column 1 is�1,1= C) With any component accurate to 2 decimal places, the component value in row 1 column 1 of the table iscomponent1,1= D) �2 value of this sample is�2=  .

Job Satisfaction. A study reported in the Journal of Small Business Management concluded that self­employed individuals do not experience higher job satisfaction than individuals who are not self­employed. In this study, job satisfaction is measured using 18 items, each of which is rated using a Likert­type scale with 1–5 response options ranging from strong agreement to strong disagreement. A higher score on this scale indicates a higher degree of job satisfaction. The sum of the ratings for the 18 items, ranging from 18 to 90, is used as the measure of job satisfaction. Suppose that this approach was used to measure the job satisfaction for lawyers, physical therapists, cab­inetmakers, and systems analysts. The results obtained for a sample of 10 individuals from each profession follow.  SatisJob Lawyer           Physical Therapist       Cabinetmaker     Systems Analyst 44                             55                             54                       44  42…
