Chapter 10.2, Problem 10P
For Problems 5–16, please provide the following information.
- (a) What is the level of significance? State the null and alternate hypotheses.
- (b) Find the value of the chi-square statistic for the sample. Are all the expected frequencies greater than 5? What sampling distribution will you use? What are the degrees of freedom?
- (c) Find or estimate the P-value of the sample test statistic.
- (d) Based on your answers in parts (a) to (c), will you reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis that the population fits the specified distribution of categories?
- (e) Interpret your conclusion in the context of the application.
Meteorology:
- (i) Remember that μ = 68 and σ = 4. Examine Figure 6-5 in Chapter 6. Write a brief explanation for Columns I, II, and III in the context of this problem.
- (ii) Use a 1% level of significance to test the claim that the average daily January temperature follows a normal distribution with μ = 68 and σ = 4.

- Let's say we collect a sample of 500 individuals from a community in Reno and find that 20 of them are HIV positive. We are interested in learning about the proportion of this community that are HIV-positive. We want to test if this proportion is different than 0.03 using the method that we discussed in class. What is the test statistic associated with this test? Note that the sample proportion is the "point estimate" and is called "p-hat" here. Even though we did not cover hypothesis testing for proportions (like this situation), you should be able to choose the correct form of test statistic based on what we discussed in class. Group of answer choices (standard error of p-hat)/(3 - p-hat) (standard error of p-hat) / (p-hat - 3) (p-hat - 0.03) / (standard error of p-hat) (0.03 - p-hat) / (standard error of p-hat)arrow_forwardWith your sample of 25 inmates, you want to test if the population mean age is different from 40 at the .05 level.
