Check Mark

Answer to Problem 9EA

The expected ball to be drawn is 12.

Explanation of Solution

Calculation:

A set of 10 Ping-Pong balls are considered and there are 120 draws from the bowl.

The expected ball to be drawn is,

Expected=12010=12

Hence, the expected ball to be drawn is 12.

(b)

To determine

Explain how the decisions follow from the data.

Explanation of Solution

Calculation:

Chi-square test statistic:

The test statistic for chi-square distribution is,

χ2=Sumof[(observed frequencyexpected frequency)2expected frequency]

With degrees of freedom=number of terms inχ2one

For Ball set A:

The expected values are,

Ball no.

Observed

Frequency

Expected frequency
01312010=12
11112010=12
21612010=12

61212010=12
71912010=12
8512010=12
91612010=12
Total120 

The test statistic is,

χ2=(1312)212+(1112)212+(1612)212++(1612)212=0.08+0.08+1.33++1.33=15.17

Hence, the value of χ2 for Ball set A is 15.17.

For Ball set B:

The expected values are,

Ball no.

61012010=12
71112010=12
8612010=12

The test statistic is,

χ2=(2212)212+(812)212+(712)212++(912)212=8.33+1.33+2.08++0.75=26.67

Hence, the value of χ2 for Ball set B is 26.67.

For Ball set C:

The expected values are,

Ball no.

The test statistic is,

χ2=(1212)212+(1012)212+(1412)212++(912)212=0.00+0.33+0.33++0.75=7.50

Hence, the value of χ2 for Ball set C is 7.50.

For Ball set D:

The expected values are,

Ball no.

61012010=12
72112010=12
81112010=12
9912010=12
Total120 

The test statistic is,

χ2=(1612)212+(712)212+(1212)212++(912)212=1.33+2.08+0.00++0.75=16.50

Hence, the value of χ2 for Ball set D is 16.50.

There are 10 value. The degrees of freedom is,

degrees of freedom=number of terms inχ2one=101=9

Hence, the degrees of freedom is 9.

From A CHI-SQUARE TABLE, the value corresponding to the 9 degrees of freedom for 10% level is 14.68, 5% level is 16.92, and the 1% level is 21.67.

It is clear that the ball set A and set D are in between the level 1% to 10% indicates that the sets are marginal and it would be retested.

The ball set B test value is greater than the critical values this indicates that the set B is rejected outright, and ball set C test value is less than the critical value which implies that the set C is accepted.

(c)

To determine

Test the Ball set A and D by using retest values.

Comment on the results.

Hence, the value of χ2 for Ball set D is 18.83.

The ball set D test value is greater than the critical values of 5% level this indicates that the set D is rejected, and ball set A test value is less than the critical value which implies that the set A is accepted.
