Question

WHAT IS THE P VALUE?

Conduct the hypothesis test and provide the test statistic, critical value and P-value, and state the conclusion. A package of 100 candies are distributed with the following color percentages: 11% red, 21% orange, 16% yellow. 13% brown, 23% blue, and 16% green. Use the given sample data to test the claim that the color distribution is as claimed. Use a 0.01 significance level. EE Click the icon to view the color counts for the candy in the package. The test statistic is 8.73 (Round to two decimal places as needed.) The critical value is 15.087 (Round to three decimal places as needed. The P-value is (Round to three decimal places as needed.)

Explanation / Answer

ANSWER: P-Value = 0.120

It is done by using Chi-square test

At alpha = 0.01 level , a chi-square score of 8.73 with (6-1) = 5 degrees of freedom, the probability value is given by , P = 0.120/

Therefore P>0.01. Hence the result is not significant
