I would appreciate if you tell me the steps on how to go about creating the graph.

Question 6 (20 points) The midterm exam statistics and histogram (with ten-point bins), are in the third tab of the attached Excel spreadsheet. You will be applying the chi-squared test to determine if the grades follow a Normal distribution, to a 5% level of significance. Considering the null hypothesis that the deviation from a Normal distribution is not statistically significant: a) Determine, the predicted number of scores in each bin nj assuming a Normal distribution. lines and no markers) on the same axes, as follows: -Predicted -Observed ..slh. (0-10] 10-20] (20-30 30-40] (40-50] (50-60] (60-70] Score Range

Explanation / Answer

Ans:

H0:grades follows normal distribution.

H1:grades do not follow normal distribution.

Use NORMDIST function in excel to calculate expected or perdicted count.

e.g. P(0<X<10)=NORMDIST(10,49.67,14.43,TRUE)-NORMDIST(0,49.67,14.43,TRUE)=0.0027

Now,multiply it by 75,0.0027*75=0.20

Test statistic:

Calculated chi square score=8.029

Critical chi square(significance level=0.05 and df=9)=16.92

As,calculated chi square score<critical chi square score,We fail to reject null hypothesis,H0.

We have sufficient evidence to conclude that grades follow normal distribution.
