A local college recently made the news by offering foreign language-speaking dorms to its students. At another school, 50 randomly selected students from each class were asked if they favored foreign language-speaking dorms. The results are shown below. At αα =0.10, is there sufficient evidence to conclude that the proportions of students favoring foreign language-speaking dorms are not the same?

  Freshmen Sophmores Juniors Seniors
Yes (favor) 6 11 22 20
No 44 39 28 30

 

What are the expected numbers? (round to 3 decimal places)

  Freshmen Sophmores Juniors Seniors
Yes (favor)        
No        


The hypotheses are 

 H0:p1=p2=p3=p4H0:p1=p2=p3=p4 

 HA:HA: At least one of the proportions is different. (claim)

 

Since αα = 0.10 the critical value is 6.251

The test value is:  (round to 3 decimal places)

The p-value is  (round to 3 decimal places)

 

So the decision is to 

 

  • reject H0H0
  • do not reject H0H0

Thus the final conclusion is

 

  • There is not enough evidence to support the claim that at least one of the proportions is different.
  • There is enough evidence to reject the claim that at least one of the proportions is different.
  • There is enough evidence to support the claim that at least one of the proportions is different.
  • There is not enough evidence to reject the claim that at least one of the proportions is different.
