A teacher predict that the distribution of grades on the final exam will be and they are recorded in table 11.27

The actual distribution for a class of 20 is in table 11.28

X2test statistic is -------

Short Answer

X2test statistic is2.04

Step by step solution

01

Given Information 

Given tables are

we have to determineX2test statistics.

02

Explanation  

We know that there are1000total frequencies. As a result, we multiply each frequency by 1000and calculate the table below.

The following steps will be used to calculate the χ2test statistic.

1. In the first column of the excel sheet, we write the expected frequencies.

2. Fill in the first column of the excel sheet with the observed frequencies.

3. Create a column titled (Observed - Expected)

4. Create a new column to calculate the square of the result (Observed Expected)

5. Divide the square of (Observed - Predicted) by the expected frequencies of each observation in the last column.

6. Finally, we add the last two columns together.

Let's now perform the calculation in Excel as follows:

X2test statistic is≈2.04

A factory manager needs to understand how many products are defective versus how many are produced. The number of expected defects is listed in Table 11.5.

Number producedNumber defective0-1005101-2006201-3007301-4008401-50010

A random sample was taken to determine the actual number of defects. Table 11.6 shows the results of the survey.

State the null and alternative hypotheses needed to conduct a goodness-of-fit test, and state the degrees of freedom.

Decide whether the following statements are true or false:

As the number of degrees of freedom increases, the graph of the chi-square distribution looks more and more symmetrical.

Suppose an airline claims that its flights are consistently on time with an average delay of at most 15minutes. It claims that the average delay is so consistent that the variance is no more than 150minutes. Doubting the consistency part of the claim, a disgruntled traveler calculates the delays for his next 25flights. The average delay for those 25flights is 22minutes with a standard deviation of 15minutes.

If an additional test were done on the claim of the average delay, but 45 flights were surveyed, which distribution would you use?

A psychologist is interested in testing whether there is a difference in the distribution of personality types for business majors and social science majors. The results of the study are shown in Table. Conduct a test of homogeneity. Test at a 5%level of significance.
