Question 2
The target grade distribution for a particular course is 10% A, 30% B, 40% C, 15% D, 5% F. Students complain that a particular professor who teaches this course grades “too hard.” The present students survey 250 former students of this professor’s class and then do aχ2 goodness-of-fit test to see if the data provide sufficient evidence to support their complaint. They find a critical value of 14.7 and a test statistic of 9.8, withα= 0.10. What is the take-away conclusion from this survey?
◦
The professor’s grades do not conform to the target.
◦
The professor’s grades conform to the target.
◦
There is not sufficient statistical evidence to reject the idea that the professor’s grades conform to the target.
◦
There is sufficient statistical evidence to reject the idea that the professor’s grades conform to the target.
