QUESTION 2#

1. Hypotheses
H0 :  Eval =Ramk For the population,Distribution of evaluation is equal to rank.

Ha : Eval ≠Ramk For the population, Distribution of evaluation varies by rank..

2. Procedure
This is to test the hypothesis that distribution of evaluation differ in the population.
, Using a=0.05 and Chi-square test of homogenity is used to make inference about
whether the population is similar or different π(population).

3. Assumptions
Each observation is independent of all the others.

4. Assumption tenability
• Under the null hypothesis that is Eval =Ramk Reject H0 if the distribution of
evaluation by rank is different. The Chi-Square test of homogeneity is used when
having different populations and determining whether the populations are similar
or homogenous.

test of
homogenity

If the null hypothesis were true, a Chi square test of homogeneity is as large as or larger
than 57.265 would occur in 32 samples out of every 10,000 drawn. Since this probability
(0.000) is less than the a level set prior to beginning at the analysis (a=.05), we can reject
the null hypothesis and accept the alternative hypothesis with more than 95% confidence.

6. Implications
The results of the chi-square homogeneity test to at least 95% confidence that
distribution of evaluation differ by rank in the population.
