Answer:

The goodness of fitness test χ²with significance of level ∝= 0.05 and 5 degrees of freedom is 11.07 (One tailed test )

Explanation:

For n=6 the degrees of freedom will be n-1 = 5 .

The goodness of fitness test χ²with significance of level ∝= 0.05 and 5 degrees of freedom is 11.07 (One tailed test )

The critical region depends on ∝ and the alternative hypothesis

a) When Ha is σ²≠σ² the critical region is

χ² < χ²(1-∝/2)(n-1) and χ² > χ²(1-∝/2)(n-1) Two tailed test

( χ² < 0.83) and ( χ² > 0.83)

b) When Ha is σ²> σ² the critical region falls in the right tail and its value is

χ² > χ²(∝)(n-1) One tailed test {11.07 (One tailed test )}

c) When Ha is σ² <σ² the critical region will be entirely in the left tail with critical value

χ²(1-∝)(n-1) One tailed test (1.145)
