Consider the null hypotheses for the following multinomial experiments. (Give your answers correct to two decimal places.)
(a) Determine the critical value and critical region that would be used in the classical approach to test Ho: P(1) = P(2) = P(3) = P(4) = 0.25, with a = 0.1.x2 (b) Determine the critical value and critical region that would be used in the classical approach to test Ho: P(1) = 0.25, P(2) = 0.40, P(3) = 0.35, with a = 0.1.x2
Setting a smaller alpha level means:
A) No answer text provided.
B)The acceptance region becomes smaller
C) The value of the critical region becomes more positive/negative
D) The p value should be large enough to reject the null hypothesis
1. Find the critical value(s) and identify the rejection region(s).

- You are conducting quality control for a company that manufactures LED displays. The factory you are assessing is supposed to have a manufacturing defect rate of 1 in 100 LED displays. As part of your assessment, you want to verify this defect rate by analyzing a random sample of LED displays. You are planning to randomly sample 1500 displays from this factory and observe how many of them contain manufacturing defects. Let Zi be equal to 1 if the i’th display has a defect and 0 otherwise, for i = 1,...,1500. (a) What is the statistic that you will use to estimate the defect rate for this factory? How do you compute it using Z1, Z2, . . . , Z1500? (b) Assuming that the true defect rate for this factory is in fact 1 in 100 displays, can we approximate the sampling distribution of the statistic that you selected in part (a) using a normal distribution?
