In Exercises 5鈥20, conduct the hypothesis test and provide the test statistic and the P-value and , or critical value, and state the conclusion.

California Daily 4 Lottery The author recorded all digits selected in California鈥檚 Daily 4 Lottery for the 60 days preceding the time that this exercise was created. The frequencies of the digits from 0 through 9 are 21, 30, 31, 33, 19, 23, 21, 16, 24, and 22. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim of lottery officials that the digits are selected in a way that they are equally likely.

Short Answer

Expert verified

There is enough evidence to conclude that the different digits in the lottery occur equally likely.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

The frequencies of digits that appear in the lottery are recorded for 60 days.

02

Check the requirements

As per the requirements of the chi-square test, the samples must be randomly selected, and the expected value must be larger than 5.

Let O denote the observed frequencies of the games.

The following values are obtained for the 10 digits:

\(\begin{aligned}{l}{O_0} = 21\\{O_1} = 30\\{O_2} = 31\\{O_3} = 33\\{O_4} = 19\end{aligned}\)

\(\begin{aligned}{l}{O_5} = 23\\{O_6} = 21\\{O_7} = 16\\{O_8} = 24\end{aligned}\)

\({O_9} = 22\)

The sum of all observed frequencies is computed below:

\(\begin{aligned}{c}n = 21 + 30 + ...... + 22\\ = 240\end{aligned}\)

Let E denote the expected frequencies.

It is given that the digits are expected to be selected in a way that they are equally likely.

The expected frequency for each of the 10 digits is the same and is equal to:

\(\begin{aligned}{c}E = \frac{{240}}{{10}}\\ = 24\end{aligned}\)

Assuming the samples are randomly taken, the requirements of the test are satisfied.

03

Conduct the hypothesis test

The table below shows the necessary calculations:

0.1667

The value of the test statistic is equal to:

\(\begin{aligned}{c}{\chi ^2} = \sum {\frac{{{{\left( {O - E} \right)}^2}}}{E}} \;\\ = 0.375 + 1.5 + ....... + 0.1667\\ = 11.583\end{aligned}\)

Thus,\({\chi ^2} = 11.583\).

Let k be the number of digits, which are 10.

The degrees of freedom for\({\chi ^2}\)is computed below:

\(\begin{aligned}{c}df = k - 1\\ = 10 - 1\\ = 9\end{aligned}\)

04

State the decision

The critical value of\({\chi ^2}\)at\(\alpha = 0.05\)with 9 degrees of freedom is obtained from chi-square table as 16.919.

The p-value is,

\(\begin{aligned}{c}p - value = P\left( {{\chi ^2} > 11.583} \right)\\ = 0.238\end{aligned}\)

Since the test statistic value is less than the critical value and the p-value is greater than 0.05, the null hypothesis is failed to be rejected.

05

State the conclusion

There is enough evidence to favor the claim that the different digits in the lottery do occur equally likely.

In a study of high school students at least 16 years of age,

researchers obtained survey results summarized in the accompanying table (based on data from 鈥淭exting While Driving and Other Risky Motor Vehicle Behaviors Among U.S. High School Students,鈥 by O鈥橫alley, Shults, and Eaton, Pediatrics,Vol. 131, No. 6). Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim of independence between texting while driving and irregular seat belt use. Are those two risky behaviors independent of each other?

A case-control (or retrospective) study was conductedto investigate a relationship between the colors of helmets worn by motorcycle drivers andwhether they are injured or killed in a crash. Results are given in the table below (based on datafrom 鈥淢otorcycle Rider Conspicuity and Crash Related Injury: Case-Control Study,鈥 by Wellset al., BMJ USA,Vol. 4). Test the claim that injuries are independent of helmet color. Shouldmotorcycle drivers choose helmets with a particular color? If so, which color appears best?

The accompanying table is from a study conducted

with the stated objective of addressing cell phone safety by understanding why we use a particular ear for cell phone use. (See 鈥淗emispheric Dominance and Cell Phone Use,鈥 by Seidman, Siegel, Shah, and Bowyer, JAMA Otolaryngology鈥擧ead & Neck Surgery,Vol. 139, No. 5.)

The goal was to determine whether the ear choice is associated with auditory or language brain hemispheric dominance. Assume that we want to test the claim that handedness and cell phone ear preference are independent of each other.

a. Use the data in the table to find the expected value for the cell that has an observed frequency of 3. Round the result to three decimal places.

b. What does the expected value indicate about the requirements for the hypothesis test?

Probability Refer to the results from the 150 subjects in Cumulative Review Exercise 5.

b.Find the probability that if 1 of the 150 subjects is randomly selected, the result is a woman who spent the money or was given a single 100-yuan bill.

c.If two different women are randomly selected, find the probability that they both spent the money.
