Using a 1% level of significance, test the claim that the census distribution and the sample distribution agree.
(a) What is the level of significance?
State the null and alternate hypotheses.
OH: The distributions are the same.
H₁: The distributions are different.
OH: The distributions are different.
H: The distributions are the same.
OH: The distributions are different.
H₁: The distributions are different.
OH: The distributions are the same.
H₁: The distributions are the same.
(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 5?
Yes
© No
What sampling distribution will you use?
O Student's t
O normal
O uniform
O binomial
O chi-square
What are the degrees of freedom?
(c) Estimate the P-value of the sample test statistic.
OP-value>0.100
O 0.050 < P-value < 0.100
O 0.025 < P-value < 0.050
O 0.010 < P-value < 0.025
0.005 < P-value < 0.010
OP-value < 0.005
(d) Based on your answers in parts (a) to (c), will you reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis that the population fits the specified distribution of categories?
O Since the P-value>a, we fail to reject the null hypothesis.
O Since the P-value>, we reject the null hypothesis.
O Since the P-value sa, we reject the null hypothesis.
O Since the P-values, we fail to reject the null hypothesis.
(e) Interpret your conclusion in the context of the application.
At the 1% level of significance, the evidence is sufficient to condude that census distribution and the ethnic origin distribution of city residents are different.
