(a) What is the level of significance?
State the null and alternate hypotheses.
O Hg: Contribution level and ethnic group are not independent.
H: Contribution level and ethnic group are independent.
O Hg: Contribution level and ethnic group are independent.
H: Contribution level and ethnic group are independent.
O Hg: Contribution level and ethnic group are not independent.
H: Contribution level and ethnic group are not independent.
O Hg: Contribution level and ethnic group are independent.
H: Contribution level and ethnic group are not independent.
(b) Find the value of the chi-square statistic for the sample. (Round the expected frequencies to at least three decimal places. Round the test statistic to three decimal places.)
Are all the expected frequencies greater than 57
O Yes
O No
What sampling distribution will you use?
O uniform
O binomial
O Student's t
O hi-square
O normal
What are the degrees of freedom?
(C) Find or estimate the P-value of the sample test statistic. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
(d) Based on your answers in parts (a) to (c), will you reject or fall to reject the null hypothesis of independence?
O Since the P-value > a, we fall to reject the null hypothesis.
O Since the P-value > a, we reject the null hypothesis.
O Since the P-value sa, we reject the null hypothesis.
O Since the P-value sa, we fail to reject the null hypothesis.
(e) Interpret your condlusion in the context af the application.
O At the 1% level of significance, there is sufficient evidence to condlude that contribution level and ethnic group are not independent.
O At the 1% level of significance, there is insufficient evidence to conclude that contribution level and ethnic group are not independent.
