A die is rolled 240 times to test whether it is fair. The counts of each face are shown. Compute the chi-square goodness-of-fit statistic χ² for H₀: each face has probability 1/6.
Chi-square tests worksheet with answers
A sweet manufacturer claims the colour proportions shown in the table. A random sample of 200 sweets gives the observed counts. Compute the chi-square goodness-of-fit statistic χ² for H₀: the claimed proportions are correct.
The contingency table shows observed counts. For a chi-square test of independence, find the expected count E for the cell “staff, car”.
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.
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.
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.
