Refer to the data given in Exercise 1 and assume that the requirements are all satisfied and we want to conduct a hypothesis test of independence using the methods of this section. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The hypotheses:

\({\rm{Null}}\left( {{H_0}} \right):\)Thehandedness and cell phone ear preference are independent of each other.

\({\rm{Alternative}}\left( {{H_1}} \right):\) The handedness and cell phone ear preference are dependent on each other.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

The data for two variables,ear preference and handedness for using the cell phone is provided.

Assume that all the requirements for conducting the test for independence are satisfied.

Refer to exercise 1 for the data as,

Right Ear

Left Ear

No Preference

Right-Handed

436

166

40

Left-Handed

16

50

02

State the procedure to identify the hypotheses

The hypotheses always appears in pair of two; null and alternative.

A null hypothesis is the base hypothesis which is expressed for a no change assumption while the alternative hypothesis describes the change.

Thus, a null hypothesis is always expressed with an equal to sign, if expressed mathematically.

03

State the null and alternate hypothesis

The claim requires to test for independence of two variables; handedness and ear preference.

Thus, the hypotheses are formulated as follows:

\({\rm{Null}}\left( {{H_0}} \right):\)Thehandedness and cell phone ear preference are independent of each other.

\({\rm{Alternative}}\left( {{H_1}} \right):\) The handedness and cell phone ear preference are dependent on each other.

Do World War II Bomb Hits Fit a Poisson Distribution? In analyzing hits by V-1 buzz bombs in World War II, South London was subdivided into regions, each with an area of 0.25\(k{m^2}\). Shown below is a table of actual frequencies of hits and the frequencies expected with the Poisson distribution. (The Poisson distribution is described in Section 5-3.) Use the values listed and a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the actual frequencies fit a Poisson distribution. Does the result prove that the data conform to the Poisson distribution?

American Idol Contestants on the TV show American Idol competed to win a singing contest. At one point, the website WhatNotToSing.com listed the actual numbers of eliminations for different orders of singing, and the expected number of eliminations was also listed. The results are in the table below. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the actual eliminations agree with the expected numbers. Does there appear to be support for the claim that the leadoff singers appear to be at a disadvantage?
