Ciara, an ornithologist, has 444 bird feeders at separate locations. She wonders if birds are equally likely to visit each of the feeders. She recorded data for a sample of 350350350 recent visits. Here are the results: Feeder \#1#1\#, 1 \#2#2\#, 2 \#3#3\#, 3 \#4#4\#, 4 Observed visits 808080 909090 929292 888888 Ciara wants to perform a \chi^2χ 2 \chi, squared goodness-of-fit test to determine if these results suggest that birds visit one specific feeder more often than the other feeders. What is the expected count of visits to the third feeder? You may round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Sagot :

The expected count of visits is the mean or average visits to each feeder

The expected count of visits to the third feeder is 87.5

How to determine the expected count of visit?

The table of values is given as:

Feeder                 1   2    3   4

Observed visits 80 90 92 88

In this case, the null hypothesis implies that the visits to each feeder are uniformly distributed

So, the expected count is calculated using:

Expected count =Visits/Feeders

This gives

Expected count = 350/4

Evaluate the quotient

Expected count = 87.50

Hence, the expected count of visits to the third feeder is 87.5
