14. A die is thrown 300 times with the following results:
No turned up |
1 |
2 |
3 |
4 |
5 |
6 |
Frequency |
38 |
46 |
56 |
34 |
64 |
62 |
Is the die biased?
Answers should be in word version Format Please
Here hypothesis is
H0 : The die is not biased.
Ha : The die is biased.
Here the expected number of frequency for die roll = 300/6 = 50
here we will employ chi-square statistic
=
No. Turned Up | Frequency | Expected Frequency | Chi-square value |
1 | 38 | 50 | 2.88 |
2 | 46 | 50 | 0.32 |
3 | 56 | 50 | 0.72 |
4 | 34 | 50 | 5.12 |
5 | 64 | 50 | 3.92 |
6 | 62 | 50 | 2.88 |
Sum | 300 | 300 | 15.84 |
= 15.84
Here we will assume significane value = 0.05,
so here degree of freedom = dF = n-1 = 6 -1 = 5
Critical value = CHIINV(0.05,5) = 11.07
so here > critical so we would reject the null hypothesis and conclude that the die is biased.
