Use the following information to answer the next nine exercises: The following data are real. The cumulative number of
AIDS cases reported for Santa Clara County is broken down by ethnicity as in Table 11.29.
Ethnicity | Number of Cases |
White | 2,229 |
Hispanic | 1,157 |
Black/African-American | 457 |
Asian, Pacific Islander | 232 |
Total = 4075 |
The percentage of each ethnic group in Santa Clara County is as in Table 11.30.
Ethnicity | Percentage of total county population | Number expected (round to two decimal places) |
White | 42.9% | 1748.18 |
Hispanic | 26.7% | |
Black/African-American | 2.6% | |
Asian, Pacific Islander | 27.8% | |
Total=100% |
If the ethnicities of AIDS victims followed the ethnicities of the total county population, fill in the expected number of
cases per ethnic group.
Perform a goodness-of-fit test to determine whether the occurrence of AIDS cases follows the ethnicities of the general
population of Santa Clara County
