The degrees of freedom are k  p  1 = 4  0  1 = 3

a) 1) The variable of interest is the form of the distribution for the random variable X.

2) H0: The form of the distribution is binomial with n = 6 and p = 0.25 3) H1: The form of the distribution is not binomial with n = 6 and p = 0.25 4)  = 0.05 5) The test statistic is k 2 2 Oi  Ei  0   i1 Ei 2 2 6) Reject H0 if o  0.05,3  7.81 7) 4  8.89892 15  8.23972 2  ⋯  10.39 0 8.8989 8.2397

8) Since 10.39 > 7.81 reject H0. We can conclude that the distribution is not binomial with n = 6 and p = 0.25 at  = 0.05. b) P-value = 0.0155 (found using Minitab) 8-68. 1. The variable of interest is failures of an electronic component. 2. H0: Type of failure is independent of mounting position.

3. H1: Type of failure is not independent of mounting position. 4. a = 0.01 5. The test statistic is: r c 2 2 (oij  Eij) 0    i1j1 Eij 2 6. The critical value is .01,3  11.344 7. The calculated test statistic is 2 0  10.71 2 2 8. 0  0.01,3 , do not reject H0 and conclude evidence is not sufficient to claim that the type of failure is not independent of the mounting position at a = 0.01. P-value = 0.013 9-4. a) 1) The parameter of interest is the difference in mean burning rate, 1  2
