Question 181417:  This is a practice worksheet no book.  Sorry
 
CHI Square
 
Students in grades 4-6 were asked whether good grades, athletic ability, or popularity was important to them. A two way table separating the students by grade and choice or most important factor is shown below"

a. State the null and alternate hypothesis. 
Ho:________ H1:__________
 
b.  State the decision rule. 
____________________________________________________ 
c.  Compute the value of the test statistic.  For Chi Square first calculate the expected values.

a. State the null and alternate hypothesis. 
Ho:The row and column factors are independent  
H1:The row and column factors are dependent 
--------------------------------------------------  
b. State the decision rule. 
Reject Ho if test stat is > critical value or if P-value is < alpha

c. Compute the value of the test statistic.  
For Chi Square first calculate the expected values.

calculate the expected values.

Not sure what you are looking for here. 
Running a Chi-square generates a 3x3 expected value matrix 
where each matrix-element value is (row sum/total sum)*(column sum)  
? 2 
2 (observed - expected) 
X = ___________________ calculate  
---------------------------------------------
 
d. compute P value 
p-value = 0.824 = 82.4% 
----------------------------- 
 
 
e. What is your decision reguarding the null hypothesis? 
Since p-value is < alpha, Fail to reject Ho. 
The row and column factors are independent.
