What sampling distribution will you use?
O binomial
O normal
O uniform
O Student's t
O chi-square
What are the degrees of freedom?
(c) Find or estimate the P-value of the sample test statistic. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
p-value > 0.100
O 0.050 < p-value < 0.100
O 0.025 < p-value < 0.050
O 0.010 < p-value < 0.025
0.005 < p-value < 0.010
O p-value < 0.005
(d) Based on your answers in parts (a) to (c), will you reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis of independence?
Since the P-value > a, we fail to reject the null hypothesis.
Since the P-value > a, we reject the null hypothesis.
Since the P-value < a, we reject the null hypothesis.
Since the P-value < a, we fail to reject the null hypothesis.
(e) Interpret your conclusion in the context of the application.
At the 5% level of significance, there is sufficient evidence to conclude that age distribution and location are not independent.
At the 5% level of significance, there is insufficient evidence to conclude that age distribution and location are not independent.
