Chapter 11.1, Problem 17BSC
In Exercises 5–20, conduct the hypothesis test and provide the test statistic and the P-value and / or critical value, and state the conclusion.
Exercises 17–20 are based on data sets included in Appendix B. The complete data sets can be found at www.TriolaSlats.com.
17. Admissions for Birth Data Set 4 “Births” includes the days of the weeks that prospective mothers were admitted to a hospital to give birth. A physician claims that because many births are induced or involve cesarean section, they are scheduled for days other than Saturday or Sunday, so births do not occur on the seven different days of the week with equal frequency. Use a 0.01 significance level to test that claim.
