A personnel manager is concerned about absenteeism. She decides to sample employee records to determine if absenteeism is distri

buted evenly throughout the six-day workweek. The null hypothesis is: Absenteeism is distributed evenly throughout the week. The 0.01 level is to be used. The sample results are: Day of the Week Number of Employees Absent Monday 12 Tuesday 9 Wednesday 11 Thursday 10 Friday 9 Saturday 9 What is the critical value of chi-square with α = 0.05? Select one: a. 11.070 b. 12.592 c. 13.388 d. 15.033

Answer:

df=categor-1=6-1=5

The critical value can be founded with the following Excel formula:

=CHISQ.INV(1-0.05,5)

And we got \chi^2_{critc}= 11.0705

a. 11.070

And since our calculated value is lower than the critical we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis at 5% of significance

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A chi-square goodness of fit test "determines if a sample data matches a population".

A chi-square test for independence "compares two variables in a contingency table to see if they are related. In a more general sense, it tests to see whether distributions of categorical variables differ from each another".

Solution to the problem

For this case we want to test:

H0: Absenteeism is distributed evenly throughout the week

H1: Absenteeism is NOT distributed evenly throughout the week

We have the following data:

Monday  Tuesday  Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday    Total

 12             9                 11                 10           9            9              60

The level of significance assumed for this case is \alpha=0.05

The statistic to check the hypothesis is given by:

\sum_{i=1}^n \frac{(O_i -E_i)^2}{E_i}

The table given represent the observed values, we just need to calculate the expected values with the following formula E_i = \frac{60}{6}= 10 and the expected value is the same for all the days since that's what we want to test.

now we can calculate the statistic:

\chi^2 = \frac{(12-10)^2}{10}+\frac{(9-10)^2}{10}+\frac{(11-10)^2}{10}+\frac{(10-10)^2}{10}+\frac{(9-10)^2}{10}+\frac{(9-10)^2}{10}=0.8

Now we can calculate the degrees of freedom (We know that we have 6 categories since we have information for 6 different days) for the statistic given by:

df=categor-1=6-1=5

The critical value can be founded with the following Excel formula:

=CHISQ.INV(1-0.05,5)

And we got \chi^2_{critc}= 11.0705

a. 11.070

And since our calculated value is lower than the critical we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis at 5% of significance

A collection of 108 coins containing only quarters and nickels is worth $21.
Rudiy27

Answer:

The value could replace q is 108 - n ⇒ the last answer

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets study the values of quarters and nickles

- One quarter = 25 cents

- One nickle = 5 cents

- The number of coins is 108

- The coins are nickles or quarters only

- The coins worth $ 21

* Lets solve the problem

∵ The number of coins is 108 coins

- Let the quarter is q and the nickel is n

∴ q + n = 108 ⇒ (1)

∵ The coins worth $21

∵ $ 1 = 100 cents

∴ $21 = 21 × 100 = 2100 cents

∵ The quarter = 25 cents

∵ The nickels = 5 cents

∴ 25q + 5n = 2100 ⇒ (2)

- To find the value which replace q use equation (1)

∵ q + n = 108 ⇒ subtract n from both sides

∴ q = 108 - n

* The value could replace q is 108 - n

Assume that the heights of women are normally distributed with a mean of 63.6 inches and a standard deviation of 2.5 inches. If
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

<h2>The probability is 58 %.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem belong to a normal distribution probability.

Mean = 63.6

Standard Deviation = 2.5.

We have to find the probability of a height greater than 63.0.

Due to the normal probability, we need to find the Z score first:

Z=\frac{x-u}{o}; where x is the height, u is the mean, and o is the standard deviation.

Z=\frac{63-63.6}{2.5} \\Z= -0.24

Once we have our Z score, we find the probability with the z-table (attached). So, for a z score of -0.24 we have a probability of 0.42.

But, the problem is asking for height greater than 63.0, this mean that we have to subtract 0.42 from 1, giving as result 0.58, which means a 58% of probability,
