2. A study showed 110 cases of “blue lung disease” among 1,000instructors who used blue dry erase markers in classes and 90 casesof “blue lung disease” among 1,000 instructors who did not use bluedry erase markers in classes. Test whether instructors who usedblue dry erase markers in classes were significantly more likely todevelop “blue lung disease” than instructors who did not use bluedry erase markers in classes.
