1.Easy

A dihybrid cross is expected to give offspring in the ratio 9 : 3 : 3 : 1. Among 240 offspring the counts shown are observed. Compute the chi-square goodness-of-fit statistic χ² for H₀: the ratio is 9 : 3 : 3 : 1.

n = 240k = 4

χ² =

2.Easy

A dihybrid cross is expected to give offspring in the ratio 9 : 3 : 3 : 1. Among 160 offspring the counts shown are observed. Compute the chi-square goodness-of-fit statistic χ² for H₀: the ratio is 9 : 3 : 3 : 1.

n = 160k = 4

χ² =

3.Medium

The contingency table shows observed counts. Compute the chi-square statistic χ² for the test of independence between the row and column variables. Do not use a continuity correction.

N = 1402 × 2

χ² =

4.Medium

The contingency table shows observed counts. For a chi-square test of independence, find the expected count E for the cell “night shift, major”.

row total = 65column total = 63N = 167

E =

5.Hard

The table shows observed counts. Test at α = 0.01 whether the two variables are independent (no continuity correction). Compute the test statistic χ², then compare it with the critical value from the table.

N = 2003 × 2α = 0.01

χ² =

6.Hard

The table shows observed counts. Test at α = 0.05 whether the two variables are independent (no continuity correction). Compute the test statistic χ², then compare it with the critical value from the table.

N = 2403 × 2α = 0.05

χ² =

1. χ² = 29.45
2. χ² = 8.578
3. χ² = 1.886
4. E = 24.52
5. χ² = 24.65
