Determining the chi-square statistic

Reference no: EM1317092

Q1) National Survey of Adolescent Health interviewed several thousand teens (grades 7 to 12). One question asked was "What do you believe are chances you will be married in next ten years?" Here is two-way table of the responses by sex:

	Female	Male
Almost no chance	119	103
Some chance, but probably not	150	171
A 50-50 chance	447	512
A good chance	735	710
Almost certain	1174	756

i) Mention the null and alternative hypothesis to test if distributions of responses for chance to be married in next ten years and gender are statistically significant.

ii) Determine expected cell counts if null hypothesis is true and show them in a two-way table.

iii) Determine the chi-square() statistic?

iv) How many degrees of freedom are there?

v) Are the differences in distributions of responses for chance to be married in the next ten years and gender statistically significant at the α = 5% level? Why?
