How would you answer the following question:

Next Wednesday's meeting has been moved forward two days. What day is the meeting now that it has been rescheduled?

This question is ambiguous as "moved forward" can be interpreted in two different ways. Did you answer Monday or Friday? The authors of the paper "Even Abstract Motion Influences the Understanding of Time" (Metaphor and Symbol [2011]: 260–271) wondered if the answers Monday and Friday would be provided an equal proportion of the time. A sample of students at Stanford University were asked this question, and the responses are summarized in the following table.

The authors of the paper used a chi-squared goodness-of-fit test to test the null hypothesis

H₀: p₁ = 0.50, p₂ = 0.50,

where p₁ is the proportion who would respond Monday and p₂ is the proportion who would respond Friday. They reported

χ² = 11.00

and

P-value < 0.001.

What conclusion can be drawn from this test?

Since the P-value is small, there is convincing evidence to conclude that the population proportions of people who respond "Monday" and "Friday" are equal.

Since the P-value is large, there is not enough evidence to conclude that the population proportions of people who respond "Monday" and "Friday" are not equal.   

Since the P-value is small, there is convincing evidence to conclude that the population proportions of people who respond "Monday" and "Friday" are not equal.

Since the P-value is small, there is not enough evidence to conclude that the population proportions of people who respond "Monday" and "Friday" are not equal.

The Sacramento area was founded on the prospect of gold. Gold discovery in nearby Coloma brought countless people west with hopes of richer days and better choices for their families. In collaboration with a local merchant Sam Brannan, John Sutter and his family founded the city of Sacramento in 1848. In April of 1849, the population of the area was estimated at 150 people. By October of the same year, the population grew to a whopping 6,000 people (Wiegand, 1998). In mid-October of 1850 it is reported that a riverboat named the “New World” arrived in the area with a single passenger carrying the deadly cholera disease. As a result of exposure to cholera, reports indicated that within three weeks 800 people died of the disease. Many of those that perished are buried in a common grave located at the Old City Cemetery located at 1000 Broadway Street in Sacramento. Approximately 80 physicians were working during the time of the cholera outbreak, and 17 died from cholera within a year after initial exposure (Old City Cemetery, 2005). What type of outbreak is this? Explain and include aspects of how exposure occurred, description of whether it is epidemic, pandemic, or endemic, type of exposure etc.
