You are conducting a multinomial Goodness of Fit hypothesis test for the claim that the 4 categories occur with the following frequencies:
$H_{o}: p_{A}=0.3 ; p_{B}=0.4 ; p_{C}=0.15 ; p_{D}=0.15$

What is the chi-square test-statistic for this data? (2 decimal places)
\[
x^{2}=9.095
\]
What is the P-Value? (3 decimal places)
\[
\text { P.Value }=
\]
For significance level alpha 0.05 ,
What would be the conclusion of this hypothesis test?
Reject the Null Hypothesis
Fail to reject the Null Hypothesis
Final Answer: The P-Value is approximately \(\boxed{0.028}\) and we \(\boxed{\text{Reject the Null Hypothesis}}\).
Step 1 :The problem provides the observed and expected frequencies for four categories (A, B, C, D) and the null hypothesis $H_{o}: p_{A}=0.3 ; p_{B}=0.4 ; p_{C}=0.15 ; p_{D}=0.15$.
Step 2 :The chi-square test-statistic for this data is calculated to be $x^{2}=9.095$.
Step 3 :The P-Value is the probability that a chi-square statistic is more extreme than the observed value, given the degrees of freedom. In this case, the degrees of freedom is the number of categories minus 1, which is 4 - 1 = 3.
Step 4 :Using the chi-square cumulative distribution function (CDF), the P-Value is calculated to be approximately 0.028.
Step 5 :For a significance level alpha of 0.05, we compare the P-Value with the significance level. If the P-Value is less than the significance level, we reject the null hypothesis. If the P-Value is greater than the significance level, we fail to reject the null hypothesis.
Step 6 :Since the P-Value is approximately 0.028, which is less than the significance level of 0.05, we reject the null hypothesis.
Step 7 :Final Answer: The P-Value is approximately \(\boxed{0.028}\) and we \(\boxed{\text{Reject the Null Hypothesis}}\).
