Chapter 12: Q. 12.96 (page 518)

State the null and alternative hypotheses for a chi-square homogeneity test
a. without using the terms homogeneous and nonhomogeneous.
b. using the terms homogeneous and nonhomogeneous

Short Answer

Expert verified

Part (a)

Without using the terms homogeneous and nonhomogeneous,

Null hypothesis,
H0 : The distributions of the variable are the same for all the populations.
Alternative hypothesis,
Ha : The distributions of the variable are not all the same (i.e., the distributions differ for at least two of the populations).

Part (b)

Using the terms homogeneous and nonhomogeneous

Null hypothesis,
H0 : The populations are homogeneous with respect to the variable.
Alternative hypothesis,
Ha : The populations are nonhomogeneous with respect to the variable.

Step by step solution

01

Part (a) Step 1. Given information

Given test is a chi-square homogeneity test

02

Part (a) Step 2. without using the terms homogeneous and nonhomogeneous.

Without using the terms homogeneous and nonhomogeneous, the null and alternative hypotheses for a chi-square homogeneity test:
Null hypothesis,
H0: The distributions of the variable are the same for all the populations.
Alternative hypothesis,
Ha : The distributions of the variable are not all the same (i.e., the distributions differ for at least two of the populations).

03

Part (b) Step 1. Given information

Given test is a chi-square homogeneity test

04

Part (b) Step 2. using the terms homogeneous and nonhomogeneous 

Using the terms homogeneous and nonhomogeneous, the null and alternative hypotheses for a chi-square homogeneity test:
Null hypothesis,
H0 : The populations are homogeneous with respect to the variable.
Alternative hypothesis,
Ha : The populations are nonhomogeneous with respect to the variable.

We have presented a contingency table that gives a cross-classification of a random sample of values for two variables x and y, of a population.

Perform the following tasks

a. Find the expected frequencies Note: You will first need to compute the row totals, column totals, and grand total.

b. Determine the value of the chi-square statistic

c. Decide at the 5% significance level whether the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the two variables are associated.

In each case, decide whether Assumptions 1and 2for using chi-square goodness-of-fit test are satisfied.

Sample size: n=100.

Relative frequencies:0.65,0.30,0.05.

In each of Exercises 12.11-12.16, we have given the relative frequencies for the null hypothesis of a chi-square goodness-of-fir text and the sample size. In each case, decide whether Assumptions 1 and 2 for using that text are satisfied.

Sample size : n= 50.

Relative frequencies: 0.22 , 0.21 , 0.25 , 0.30 , 0.02.

Job Satisfaction. A CNN/USA TODAY poll conducted by Gallul asked a sample of employed Americans the following question: "Which do you enjoy more, the hours when you are on your job, or the hours when you are not on your job?" The responses to this question were cross-tabulated against several characteristics, among which were gender, age, type of community, educational attainment, income, and type of employer. The data are provided on the WeissStats site. In each of Exercises 12.87-12.92, use the technology of your choice to decide, at the 5%significance level, whether an association exists between the specified pair of variables.

Ancestry and Region. The U.S. Census Bureau collects information on the U.S. population by ancestry and region of residenc and publishes the results in American Community Survey. Accordin; to that document, 18 % of the population resides in the Northeast.

a. If ancestry and region of residence are not associated, wha percentage of Americans of Irish ancestry would reside in the Northeast?

b. There are roughly 37 million Americans of Irish ancestry. If ancestry and region of residence are not associated, how many Americans of Irish ancestry would reside in the Northeast?

c. There are, in fact, 9.25 million Americans of Irish ancestry who reside in the Northeast. Given this information and your answer to part (b), what can you conclude?
