a. The null hypothesis here is that the proportion of students receiving an A, B, or C is the same for each of the four combinations of instructor type. Is this a test of independence, homogeneity, or goodness of fit?
b. Perform a hypothesis test for the null hypothesis in part (a\, assuming students are independent.
c. Do you think the assumption that students are independent is valid? Explain.
