Eyeglassomatic manufactures eyeglasses for different retailers. They test to see how many defective lenses they made the time period of January 1 to March 31. The table gives the defect and the number of defects. Do the data support the notion that each defect type occurs in the same proportion? Test at the 5% level. Number of Defective Lenses Defect type Number of defects Scratch 1866 Right shaped - small 1935 Flaked 1979 Wrong axis 1921 Chamfer wrong 1864 Crazing, cracks 1991 Wrong shape 2004 Wrong PD 1895 Spots and bubbles 1917 Wrong height 1885 Right shape - big 1875 Lost in lab 1886 Spots/bubble - intern 1935 State the hypotheses. H0: Each defect type in the same proportion. Ha: Each defect type in the same proportion. Calculate the χ2 test statistic. Round expected values to two decimal places. Round χ2 to three decimal places. χ2 = Calculate the p-value. Round to four decimal places. p-value = State your decision. Since p-value 0.05, H0. Interpret the results. At the 5% signficance level there enough evidence to conclude that each defect type in the same proportion.

State the hypotheses.
H0: Each defect type in the same proportion.
Ha: Each defect type in the same proportion.
Calculate the χ2 test statistic. Round
χ2 =
Calculate the p-value. Round to four decimal places.
p-value =
State your decision.
Since p-value 0.05, H0.
Interpret the results.
At the 5% signficance level there enough evidence to conclude that each defect type in the same proportion.
