Is the chance of getting a cold influenced by the number of social contacts a person has? A study by Sheldon Cohen, a psychology professor at Carnegie Melon University, seems to show that the more social relationships a person has, the less susceptible the person is to colds. A group of 276 healthy men and women were grouped according to their number of relationships (such as parent, friend, church member, and neighbor). They were then exposed to a virus that causes colds. A adaptation of the results is given in the following table.14

a Do the data present sufficient evidence to indicate that susceptibility to colds is affected by the number of relationships that people have? Test at the 5% level of significance.
b Give bounds for the p-value.
