As products come off a large assembly line, they are inspected for quality. They are placed into one of three categories: pass, fail, or need additional inspection. The manager claims that 80% of the products pass the inspection, 5% fail, and 15% need additional inspection. In an effort to increase the passing rate, the machines are recalibrated. After this recalibration, a random sample of 100 products is selected. It is discovered that 85 passed inspection, 2 failed, and 13 needed additional inspection. The manager would like to know if there is convincing evidence that the distribution has changed. What is the value of the chi-square test statistic and P-value? Find the chi-square table here. χ2 = 2.38, P-value is less than 0.0005 χ2 = 2.38, P-value is greater than 0.25 χ2 = 5.10, P-value is less than 0.0005 χ2 = 5.10, P-value is greater than 0.25

As products come off a large assembly line, they are inspected for quality. They are placed into one of three categories: pass, fail, or need additional inspection. The manager claims that 80% of the products pass the inspection, 5% fail, and 15% need additional inspection. In an effort to increase the passing rate, the machines are recalibrated. After this recalibration, a random sample of 100 products is selected. It is discovered that 85 passed inspection, 2 failed, and 13 needed additional inspection. The manager would like to know if there is convincing evidence that the distribution has changed. What is the value of the chi-square test statistic and P-value?

Find the chi-square table here.

χ2 = 2.38, P-value is less than 0.0005
χ2 = 2.38, P-value is greater than 0.25
χ2 = 5.10, P-value is less than 0.0005
χ2 = 5.10, P-value is greater than 0.25
