A marketing director for a beverage company conducted a study to investigate people’s soda preferences in two regions of the country. The director selected a random sample of 100 people from the east coast and a random sample of 100 people from the west coast to survey. The responses are summarized in the following table. East CoastWest Coast
Regular soda 44 37
Diet soda 39 42
No preference. 17 21
Total 100 100
Do the data provide convincing statistical evidence, at the level of α=0.05 , that the preferences are different between the two regions of the country? Complete the appropriate inference procedure to support your answer.

Determine if the following statement is true or false. the normal curve is symmetric about its​ mean, mu. choose the best answer below. a. the statement is false. the normal curve is not symmetric about its​ mean, because the mean is the balancing point of the graph of the distribution. the median is the point where​ 50% of the area under the distribution is to the left and​ 50% to the right.​ therefore, the normal curve could only be symmetric about its​ median, not about its mean. b. the statement is true. the normal curve is a symmetric distribution with one​ peak, which means the​ mean, median, and mode are all equal.​ therefore, the normal curve is symmetric about the​ mean, mu. c. the statement is false. the mean is the balancing point for the graph of a​ distribution, and​ therefore, it is impossible for any distribution to be symmetric about the mean. d. the statement is true. the mean is the balancing point for the graph of a​ distribution, and​ therefore, all distributions are symmetric about the mean.
