a. Choose the appropriate alternative hypothesis to test if the population proportions differ. All population proportions differ from 1/6.Not all population proportions are equal to 1/6.

b-1.Calculate the value of the test statistic. (Round intermediate calculations to 4 decimal places and your final answer to 2 decimal places.)

Test statistic  

b-2.Approximate the p-value.   0.100 < p-value < 0.2000.050 < p-value < 0.1000.010 < p-value < 0.0250.025 < p-value < 0.0500.005 < p-value < 0.010

c.At the 1% significance level, can you conclude that the die is loaded? Yes since the p-value is less than α.Yes since the p-value is more than α.No since the p-value is less than α.No since the p-value is more than α
