Question

You are conducting a goodness of fit hypothesis test (� = 0.01) for the claim that there is a difference in sales for 5 shelves at a grocery store. The number of items sold per shelf are observed and recorded over a week, the results are in the table below. Round answers to 4 decimal places. Retain and use unrounded numbers for future calculations.

a. Complete the rest of the table.  

Shelf Label Observed Frequency Expected Frequency (�-�)2� 
A 6    
B 25    
C 25    
D 15    
E 12    


b. Calculate the chi-square test-statistic for this data. 
     �2 = 

 What are the degrees of freedom for this test?
    d.f. 

 Compute the p-value for this sample.
    p-value = 

 The p-value is...

  • less than (or equal to) �
  • greater than �


c. This test statistic leads to a decision to...
  • reject the null
  • accept the null
  • fail to reject the null
  • accept the alternative


 As such, the final conclusion is that...
  • There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that there is a difference in sales for 5 shelves at a grocery store.
  • There is sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that there is a difference in sales for 5 shelves at a grocery store.
  • The sample data support the claim that there is a difference in sales for 5 shelves at a grocery store.
  • There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that there is a difference in sales for 5 shelves at a grocery store.
