7.16 How do you position yourself when you are going to sleep? A website tells us that 41% of use start in the fetal position, another 28% start on our side with legs straight, 13% start on their back, and 7% on their stomach. The remaining 11% have no standard starting sleep position. If a random sample of 1000 people produces the frequencies in the table below, should you doubt the proportions given in the article in the website? Show all the details of the test, and use a 5% significance level.

Sleep Position	Frequency
Fetal	391
Side, legs straight	257
Back	156
Stomach	89
None	107
Total	1000

Expert Solution

null hypothesis Ho: proportion of people position in sleep is as stated given in the article in the website

Alternate hypothesis Ho: proportion of people position in sleep is not as stated given in the article in the website

Stomach	0.070	89.000	70.0000	2.27	5.157
None	0.110	107.000	110.0000	-0.29	0.082
total	1.000	1000	1000		13.2087

test statistic X² =

13.2087

since test statistic falls in rejection region we reject null hypothesis
we have sufficient evidence to conclude that proportion of people position in sleep is not as stated given in the article in the website
