Chapter 10, Problem 10.1P

The following four 2 × 2 tables, presented without labels or titles, provide simplified opportunities to practice your computational skills. Calculate chi square for each.

HINTS:

• Calculate the expected frequencies for each cell with Formula 10.2. Double check to make sure you are using the correct row and column marginals for each cell.

• It may he helpful to record the expected frequencies in table format—see Tables 10.4 and 10.8.

• Use a computational table to organize the calculation for Formula 10.1—see Tables 10.5 and 10.9.

• Follow the step-by-step instructions.

• Double-check to make sure you are using the correct values for each cell.

To find:

The chi square value for the given information.

Answer to Problem 10.1P

Solution:

The chi square value is 1.12.

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The given table of information is,

a. 20 25 45
25 20 45
45 45 90

Description:

The confidence interval is an interval estimate from the statistics of the observed data that might contain the true value of the unknown population parameter.

Formula used:

For a chi square, the expected frequency fe is given as,

fe=Rowmarginal×ColumnmarginalN

Where N is the total of frequencies.

The chi square statistic is given by,

χ2(obtained)=(fofe)2fe

Where fo is the observed frequency,

And fe is the expected frequency.

Calculation:

From the given information,

The row marginal is 45, the column marginal is 45 and N is 90.

The observed frequency is given as,

fe=Rowmarginal×ColumnmarginalN

Substitute 45 for row marginal, 45 for column marginal and 90 for N in the above formula.

fe=45×4590=22.5

Consider the following table,

6.25 fo fe fofe (fofe)2 (fofe)2/fe
20 22.5 2.5 6.25 0.28
25 22.5 2.5 6.25 0.28
25 22.5 2.5 6.25 0.28
20 22.5 2.5 6.25 0.28
Total 90 90 0 χ2=1.12

The value fofe is obtained as,

Substitute 20 for fo and 22.5 for fe in the above formula.

fofe=2022.5=2.5

Squaring the above obtained result,

(fofe)2=(2.5)2=6.25

Divide the above obtained result by fe.

(fofe)2fe=6.2522.5=0.28

Proceed in a similar manner to obtain rest of the values of (fofe)2/fe and refer above table for the rest of the values of (fofe)2/fe.

The chi square value is given as,

χ2(obtained)=(fofe)2fe=0.28+0.28+0.28+0.28=1.12

Thus, the chi square value is 1.12.

Conclusion:

The chi square value is 1.12.

10 10 0 0 0
15 15 0 0 0
20 20 0 0 0
30 30 0 0 0
Total 75 75 0 0 χ2=0.0

The value fofe is obtained as,

Substitute 10 for fo and 10 for fe in the above formula.

fofe=1010=0

Squaring the above obtained result,

(fofe)2=(0)2=0

Divide the above obtained result by fe.

(fofe)2fe=0

Proceed in a similar manner to obtain rest of the values of (fofe)2/fe and refer above table for the rest of the values of (fofe)2/fe.

The chi square value is given as,

χ2(obtained)=(fofe)2fe=0+0+0+0=0.0

Conclusion:

The chi square value is 0.0.
