Question

Question 17 Suppose the age distribution of the Canadian population and the age distribution of a random sample of 450 residents in the Indian community of Red Lake are shown below Observed Number Percent of Canadian Age lyears) Under 5 7.4% 510 14 10.8% 151064 700% 65 and older in Red Lake Village 58 301 11 .8% 58 Use alpha-0.1 to test the claim that the age distribution of the general Canadian population fits the age distribution of the residents of Red Lake Village. Given that 025P- Value 050, will you rejoct or fail to reject the null hypothesis that the population fits the specified distributiorn of categories? Select one aSince the P-Value is greater than a, we reject the null hypothesis that the population fits the specified distribution of categories At O.1 level of significance, we conclude that the population fits the specified distribution of categories bSince the P-Value is gaterthan a, we fail to reject the nall hypothesis that the population fits the specified distribution of categories. At 0.1 level of significance, we conclade that the population fits the specified distribution of categories eSince the P-Value is greater than a, we reject the null hypothesis that the population fits the specified distribution of categories we conclude that the population does not fit he specified distribution of categories. At Q.1 level of significance, d Since the P-Value ikss than a, we fail to reject the null hypothesis that the population fits the specified distribution of we conclude that the population does not fit the specified distribution of categories calegorics At 0.1 level of significance, eSince the P-Valuc is grcater than oa, w fail to reject the null hypothesis that the population fits the specified distribution of significance, we conclade that the population fits the specified distribution of caegories categories. At 0.1 level of

Answer 1

Since the p-value is greater than alpha = 0.1 (level of significance), we fail to reject the null hypothesis (H₀).

Hence, option b is correct. (if marked wrong, then select option e)
