Question

The data from a firm said that 44 employees were educated on the west coast and 56 employees were educated on the east coast then we could then create the following table
East Coast West Coast Count 56 44
Using this table we can ask and answer the question as to whether the manager was correct in his/her hypothesis that 50% of the employees were educated on the East Coast and 50% were educated on the West Coast. what is the observed test statistic?

Answer 1

	East Coast	Weat Coast
Actual count	56	44
Expected Count	50	50

Hypothesis :

H0:Data is fit for the model

H1:Data is not fit for the model

Critical Value :

df=2-1=1

By using chi squre table the critical value is 3.84146

Test statistics :Calculated value:

Decision :

Chi square critical value (3.84146) > Chi square table value (1.44)

Conclusion:

We accept the H0 hypthesis means the data fit the model i.e. data 50-50 split then we conclude that manger hypothesis that employee were educted in equal number from east and west coast supoorted
