Consider a multinomial experiment with n = 360 and k = 3. The null hypothesis is H0p1 = 0.60, p2 = 0.25, and p3 = 0.15. The observed frequencies resulting from the experiment are: (You may find it useful to reference the appropriate table: chi-square table or F table)

a. Choose the appropriate alternative hypothesis.

  • All population proportions differ from their hypothesized values.
  • At least one of the population proportions differs from its hypothesized value.

 

b-1. Calculate the value of the test statistic. (Round intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places and final answer to 3 decimal places.)

b-2. Find the p-value.

  • p-value  0.10
  • 0.05  p-value < 0.10
  • 0.025  p-value < 0.05
  • 0.01  p-value < 0.025
  • p-value < 0.01

 

c. At the 10% significance level, what is the conclusion to the hypothesis test?

  • Do not reject H0 since the p-value is more than significance level.
  • Reject H0 since the p-value is less than significance level.
  • Do not reject H0 since the p-value is less than significance level.
  • Reject H0 since the p-value is more than significance level.
