Use Minitab for the following problems:
- Enter the data (counts and expected proportions) into the cells of a Minitab Worksheet.
- Use Minitab's "Stat > Tables > Chi-Square Goodness-of-Fit Test (One Variable)" option to perform the \(\chi^{2}\) goodness-of-fit test.
- Print the Minitab session window.
- Annotate the printout by adding the null and alternative hypotheses.
- Add a sketch of the density histogram for the \(\chi^{2}\) distribution when the null hypothesis is true. Use the Desmos demo we used in class to determine the shape of the density histogram with the appropriate degrees of freedom. Hint: You can change the horizontal / vertical limits of the graph by clicking on the wrench icon in the top right corner of the web page for the demo.
- Indicate the observed test statistic on your sketch.
- Show the rejection region defined by \(\alpha\) on your sketch, which you can find using Table A-4 in the appendix of Triola & Triola.
- Add your conclusion using language from the original claim. Do not just answer "Reject the null" / "Do not reject the null."
Use this solution to 10.2.8 as a template.
If you need a refresher on how to perform a one-sample \(\chi^{2}\) goodness-of-fit test using Minitab, see this Minitab documentation.
