Conduct the hypothesis test and provide the test statistic, critical value and P

Question

Conduct the hypothesis test and provide the test statistic, critical value and P-value, and state the conclusion. A person a hole in a die and filled it with a lead weight, then proceeded to roll it 200 times. Here are the observed frequencies for the outcomes of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6, respectively: 26, 28, 44, 37, 29, 36. Use a 0.025 significance level to test the claim that the outcomes are not equally likely. Does it appear that the loaded die behaves differently than a fair die? The test statistic is (Round to three decimal places as needed.) The critical value is (Round to three decimal places as needed.) The P-value is (Round to four decimal places as needed.) State the conclusion. H_0 There sufficient evidence to support the claim that the outcomes are not equally likely. The outcomes to be equally likely, so the loaded die to behave differently from a fair die.

Explanation / Answer

The statistical software output for this problem is:

Chi-Square goodness-of-fit results:
Observed: var14
Expected: All cells in equal proportion

Hence,

Test statistic = 7.060

Critical Value = 12.833

P Value = 0.2162

Do not reject; is not; appears; do not appears

N DF Chi-Square P-value 200 5 7.06 0.2162
