Conduct this test at the 0.01 significance level. (a) What is the null hypothesis for this test in terms of the probabilities of the outcomes? O Ho: The distribution in 2013 is different from that in 2005. O Ho: The probabilities are not all equal to 1/5. Ho: P1 = 0.14, P2 = 0.48, P3 = 0.08, P4 = 0.22, and p5 = 0.08. Ho: P1 = P2 = P3 = P4 = P5 = 1/5 (b) What is the value of the test statistic? Round to 3 decimal places unless your software automatically rounds to 2 decimal places. 2 = (C) Use software to get the P-value of the test statistic. Round to 4 decimal places unless your software automatically rounds to 3 decimal places. P-value = (d) What is the conclusion regarding the null hypothesis? reject Ho O fail to reject Ho (e) Choose the appropriate concluding statement. We have proven that the distribution of 2013 education attainment levels is the same as the distribution in 2005.
