Answer:

  • chi square good ness of fit = 14.99
  • p value = 0.00203
  • market share for the 5 compact cars differ from reported marketed shares
  • market share differences = 0.045, 0.01, 0.015, 0.01, 0.005, -0.0175, -0.0675

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

I made a table as seen in the first attachment to calculate the chisquare. from the calculations made the chisquare is given as:

X² = 4.05 + 0.235 + 0.75 + 0.4 + 0.1 + 1.531 + 7.924 = 14.99

to get the pvalue, i used the chi distribution function on excel.

n = 7

degrees of freedom = 7-1 = 6

α = 0.05

CHIDIST(14.99, 6) = 0.0020334635 = 0.00203

this pvalue lies between 0.01 and 0.025

conclusion

In conclusion, market share for 5 compact cars in Chicago differs from the market shares that was reported

2. market shares differences

= (sample market share - hypothesized share)

sample market share = observed/total

hypothesized share = given percentages

1. 98/400 = 0.245,

0.245-0.20 = 0.045

2. 72/400 = 0.18,

0.18 - 0.17 = 0.01

3. 54/400 = 0.135,

0.135 - 0.12 = 0.015

4. 44/400 = 0.11,

0.11 - 0.10 = 0.01

5. 42/400 = 0.105

0.105 - 0.10 = 0.005

6. 25/400 = 0.0625

0.0625-0.08 = -0.0175

7. 65/400 = 0.1625

0.1625 - 0.23 = -0.0675
