State the hypotheses. Choose the correct answer below.
A.
Upper H 0H0:
The
categories of the variablecategories of the variable
and
success and failuresuccess and failure
are independent.
Upper H 1H1:
The
categories of the variablecategories of the variable
and
success and failuresuccess and failure
are dependent.
B.
Upper H 0H0:
p11equals=p22equals=p33
Upper H 1H1:
At least one of the proportions is different from the others.
C.
Upper H 0H0:
The
categories of the variablecategories of the variable
and
success and failuresuccess and failure
are dependent.
Upper H 1H1:
The
categories of the variablecategories of the variable
and
success and failuresuccess and failure
are independent.
D.
Upper H 0H0:
muμ11equals=E11
and
muμ22equals=E22
and
muμ33equals=E33
Upper H 1H1:
At least one mean is different from what is expected.
Compute the value of the chi-square test statistic.
chi Subscript 0 Superscript 2χ20equals=nothing
(Round to three decimal places as needed.)
What range of P-values does the test statistic correspond to?
The P-value is
▼
between .01 and .025.
between .025 and .05.
greater than .10.
between .05 and .10.
less than .01.
What conclusion can be made?
A.The P-value is
greater than or equal togreater than or equal to
alphaα,
so
do not rejectdo not reject
Upper H 0H0.
There is
not sufficientnot sufficient
evidence that the proportions are different from each other.
B.The P-value is
less thanless than
alphaα,
so
do not rejectdo not reject
Upper H 0H0.
There is

evidence that the proportions are different from each other.
C.The P-value is
