A chi-squared test for proportions. Would be  a difficult A-level question or a fairly simple university level.

The proportion of blood types O, A, B, AB in the general population of a particular country are known to be in the ratio \\(\\var{p1}:\\var{p2}:\\var{p3}:\\var{p4}\\) respectively.

\n

A research team, tested the residents of a small island community in the country and obtained the following data.

Test the hypothesis that the island community share the same blood type proportions in their population as the people in the general population.

\n

", "advice": "

\\(H_0:\\) The island community share the same blood type proportions in their population as the people in the general population.

\n

\\(H_1:\\) The island community do not share the same blood type proportions in their population as the people in the general population.

\n

The population of the island \\(=\\) the total number of observations \\(=\\var{n1}+\\var{n2}+\\var{n3}+\\var{n4}=\\simplify{{n1}+{n2}+{n3}+{n4}}\\)

\n

\\(\\var{p1}\\)% of the population have type O we therefore expect \\(\\left(\\frac{\\var{p1}}{100}\\right)*(\\var{total})=\\var{e1}\\) people to have type O.

\n

\\(\\var{p2}\\)% of the population have type A we therefore expect \\(\\left(\\frac{\\var{p2}}{100}\\right)*(\\var{total})=\\var{e2}\\) people to have type A.

\n

\\(\\var{p3}\\)% of the population have type B we therefore expect \\(\\left(\\frac{\\var{p3}}{100}\\right)*(\\var{total})=\\var{e3}\\) people to have type B.

\n

\\(\\var{p4}\\)% of the population have type O we therefore expect \\(\\left(\\frac{\\var{p4}}{100}\\right)*(\\var{total})=\\var{e4}\\) people to have type AB.

\n

The formula for the t-statistic:  

\n

\\(\\chi^2=\\sum{\\frac{(obs-exp)^2}{exp}}\\)

\n

\\(\\chi^2=\\frac{(\\var{n1}-\\var{e1})^2}{\\var{e1}}+\\frac{(\\var{n2}-\\var{e2})^2}{\\var{e2}}+\\frac{(\\var{n3}-\\var{e3})^2}{\\var{e3}}+\\frac{(\\var{n4}-\\var{e4})^2}{\\var{e4}}=\\var{test_statistic}\\)

\n

We only need to consider the upper value.

\n

The \\(\\chi^2\\)-table values will be for a two-tailed test and will have \\(4-1=3\\) degrees of freedom. We only need to consider the upper value, looking this up gives:

\n

\\(\\begin{array}{r|rrrr}&0.10&0.05&0.02\\\\\\hline3&\\var{Chi_90}&\\var{Chi_95}&\\var{Chi_98}\\end{array}\\)

\n

Compare the test statistic with the \\(\\chi^2\\)-table values and choose your conclusion.
