Answer to Problem 21.1AYK

P-value =

  0.000318

Explanation of Solution

Given:

Two titled downward =20,40degree

Concept used:

Formula

Degree of freedom

  =n1

Significance level

  α=1confidenceα=10.95

Calculation:

  H0:p1=p2=p3Ha:oneofprobabilityisdiffer

Since the sample size are large.

The condition for the two samples z test are met.

Applying chi-square test of independence

  Ei=rowtotal×columntotalgrandtotal

Chi-square =(OiEi)2Ei

Chi-square =16.1132

Degree of freedom

  =n1=31=2

P-value =

  0.000318

The p-value of the test is 0.000318

Since p-value is greater than 0.05

The result significant at p<0.05

So, the null hypothesis is fail to reject.

(b)

To determine

To explain:

Thenull and alternative hypothesis of the given data.

Since the sample size are large.

The condition for the two samples z test are met.

Applying chi-square test of independence

  Ei=rowtotal×columntotalgrandtotal

Null hypothesis H0 :-No relationship between expected ratio and observed ratio.

Alternative hypothesis H1 :-A significant relationship between expected ratio and observed ratio Significance level

  α=1confidenceα=10.95α=0.05

Since p Value is greater than 0.05 significance level.

So the hypothesis is fail to reject null hypothesis H0

Since p-value is greater than 0.05

The result significant at p<0.05

So, the null hypothesis is fail to reject.
