Given: trying to determine if grading practices are consistent with the rest of their department. Historical data indicated the department's overall grade distribution for the course this instructor teaches is the following:
A/A-: 54% B+/B/B-: 28% C+/C/C-: 11% D+/D/D-: 3% F: 2% other: 2%
following the semester final grades are shown below for the
course:
A/A-: 53 B+/B/B-" 36 C+/C/C-: 12 D+/D/D-: 5 F:1 other: 3 total: 110 to test this consistency, the instructor will use a chi-square goodness-of-fit test
Q7: construct the null and alternative hypotheses for this test
Q8:Determine the expected counts assuming the null is
trie for the following categories. A/A-, B+/B/B-, C+/C/C-, D=/D/D-,
F, other
Q9: perform the chi-square goodness-of-fit test at the .05 significance level
