Question

Test the claim that births occur with the same frequency on different days of the week at the 0.05 significance level. Complete the table.

Round all answers to three decimal places.



Day of Week Observed
Frequency
Expected
Frequency
(O−E)2E(O-E)2E
Sunday 15    
Monday 15    
Tuesday 10    
Wednesday 24    
Thursday 6    
Friday 6    
Saturday 21    

 

H0H0: pSun = pMon = pTue = pWed = pThu = pFri = pSat
H1H1: at least one is different

Original claim = Select an answer H₁ H₀ 

 

Enter the critical value, along with the significance level and degrees of freedom χ2χ2(αα,df) below the graph. (Graph is for illustration only. No need to shade.)

 
X2Χ2(,) = 


(Round to three decimal places.)

 

Test Statistic =  (Round to three decimal places.)
p-value=
(Round to four decimal places.)


Decision: Select an answer Accept the alternative hypothesis Accept the null hypothesis Fail to reject the null hypothesis Reject the null hypothesis 

Conclusion: Select an answer There is sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of There is not sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of There is not enough evidence to support The sample data supports  the claim that births occur with the same frequency on different days of the week.
