In a three-digit lottery, each of the three digits is supposed to have the same probability of occurrence (counting initial blanks as zeros, e.g., 32 is treated as 032).
\n" ); document.write( "The table shows the frequency of occurrence of each digit for 90 consecutive daily three-digit drawings.
\n" ); document.write( "(a) Make a bar chart and describe it.
\n" ); document.write( "Can't do that on this site.
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "(b) Calculate expected frequencies for each class.
\n" ); document.write( "270/10 = 27 for each digit
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "(c) Perform the chi-square test for a uniform distribution.
\n" ); document.write( "At α = .05, can you reject the hypothesis that the digits are from a uniform
\n" ); document.write( "population?
\n" ); document.write( "chi-Sq = 4.16
\n" ); document.write( "p-value = 0.9
\n" ); document.write( "Conclusion: Since the p-value is greater than 5%, reject the null hypothesis which states that the distribution is uniform.
