Chi-Squared hypothesis testing
Lessons
If a claim is made about population variance, we can test this claim using our sample variance using a Chi-Squared distribution,
• Chi-Squared: X2=σ2(n−1)s2
n: sample size
s: sample standard deviation
σ: population standard deviation
(n−1): is also called "degrees of freedom"
• Chi-Square table gives critical value area to the right
• Chi-Squared: X2=σ2(n−1)s2
n: sample size
s: sample standard deviation
σ: population standard deviation
(n−1): is also called "degrees of freedom"
• Chi-Square table gives critical value area to the right
- IntroductionWhat is Chi-Squared Hypothesis Testing?
- 1.Variance Hypothesis Testing
A sample of 10 dumbbells is weighted. The variance of this sample is 25 grams. With a 90% confidence level what can be said about the following claims:a)"The variance of all dumbbells is equal to 15 grams"b)"The variance of all dumbbells is more than 15 grams" - 2.Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans are on average 2.35 grams. The manufactures (Bertie & Bill Bott) sample 26 beans, and it is found that their standard deviation is 0.043 grams. With a 95% confidence level can Bertie Bott's say that their beans have a standard deviation of less than 0.05 grams?
