Discussion:
Q: A person purchased a slot machine and tested it by playing it 1,245 times. There are 10 different categories of outcomes, including no win, win jackpot, win with three balls, and so on. When testing the claim that the observed outcomes agree with the expected frequencies, the author obtained a test statistic of xsquared=10.413. Use a 0.10 significance level to test the claim that the actual outcomes agree with the frequencies. Does the slot machine appear to be functioning?
