Suppose a candy company representative claims that colored candies are mixed such that each large production batch has precisely the following proportions: 10% brown, 10% yellow, 30% red, 20% orange, 10% green, and 20% blue. The colors present in a sample of 3613 candies were recorded. Is the representative's claim about the expected proportions of each color refuted by the data?
Color | brown | yellow | red | orange | green | blue |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Number of Candies | 34 | 52 | 70 | 83 | 52 | 70 |
Step 1 of 10 : State the null and alternative hypothesis.
Step 2 of 10 : What does the null hypothesis indicate about the proportions?
Step 3 of 10 : State the null and alternative hypothesis in terms of the expected proportions.
Step 4 and 5 of 10 : Find the expected value for the number for each color. Round your answer to two decimal places.
Step 6 of 10 : Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to three decimal places
Step 7 of 10 : Find the degrees of freedom associated with the test statistic for this problem.
Step 8 of 10 : Find the critical value of the test at the 0.20,0.15,0.10,0.05,0.02,0.01 level of significance. Round your answer to three decimal places.
Step 9 of 10 : Make the decision to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis at each level of significance.
Step 10 of 10 : State the conclusion of the hypothesis test at each level of significance.
