Answer to Problem 21.1AYK

P-value =

  0.000318

Explanation of Solution

Given:

Two titled downward =20,40degree

Concept used:

Formula

Degree of freedom

  =n1

Significance level

  α=1confidenceα=10.95

Calculation:

  H0:p1=p2=p3Ha:oneofprobabilityisdiffer

Since the sample size are large.

The condition for the two samples z test are met.

Applying chi-square test of independence

  Ei=rowtotal×columntotalgrandtotal

Chi-square =(OiEi)2Ei

Chi-square =16.1132

Degree of freedom

  =n1=31=2

P-value =

  0.000318

The p-value of the test is 0.000318

Since p-value is greater than 0.05

The result significant at p<0.05

So, the null hypothesis is fail to reject.

Since the sample size are large.

The condition for the two samples z test are met.

Applying chi-square test of independence

  Ei=rowtotal×columntotalgrandtotal

Null hypothesis H0 :-No relationship between expected ratio and observed ratio.

Alternative hypothesis H1 :-A significant relationship between expected ratio and observed ratio Significance level

  α=1confidenceα=10.95α=0.05

Since p Value is greater than 0.05 significance level.

So the hypothesis is fail to reject null hypothesis H0

Since p-value is greater than 0.05

The result significant at p<0.05

So, the null hypothesis is fail to reject.

Pam, Rob and Sam get a cake that is one-third chocolate, one-third vanilla, and one-third strawberry as shown below. They wish to fairly divide the cake using the lone chooser method.  Pam likes strawberry twice as much as chocolate or vanilla.   Rob only likes chocolate.  Sam, the chooser, likes vanilla and strawberry twice as much as chocolate.  In the first division, Pam cuts the strawberry piece off and lets Rob choose his favorite piece.  Based on that, Rob chooses the chocolate and vanilla parts. Note: All cuts made to the cake shown below are vertical.Which is a second division that Rob would make of his share of the cake?
Three players (one divider and two choosers) are going to divide a cake fairly using the lone divider method. The divider cuts the cake into three slices (s1, s2, and s3). If the choosers' declarations are Chooser 1: {s1 , s2} and Chooser 2: {s2 , s3}. Using the lone-divider method, how many different fair divisions of this cake are possible?
