Question:
The data given in the previous problem may be 1,334 independent observations from a Bin(7, p) distribution. If so, use the defining assumptions of the binomial distribution to show that this is the same as one observation from a Bin(1334 × 7, p) distribution. Estimate p with pˆ = Total number of boys Total number of trials .
Repeat the previous problem, replacing .5 with ˆp. Compare X2 to a χ2(6)
distribution, reducing the degrees of freedom by one because the probability p is being estimated from the data.
