The table below lists the frequency of wins for different post positions in a horse race. A post position of 1 is closest to the inside rail, so that horse has the shortest distance to run. (Because the number of horses varies from year to year, only the first 10 post positions are included.) Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the likelihood of winning is the same for the different post positions. Based on the result, should bettors consider the post position of a horse race? Post_Position Wins 20 13 10 16 1 2 3 4 14 7 8 5 6 7 13 4 12 8 10 What is the test statistic and P value? What is the conclusion of the hypothesis test?
