When we carry out a chi-square goodness-of-fit test for a normal distribution, the null hypothesis states that the population:________

a. Does not have a normal distribution
b. Has a normal distribution
c. Has a chi-square distribution
d. Does not have a chi-square distribution
e. Has k-3 degrees of freedom

Answer:

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis for a chi-square goodness of fit test states that the data are consistent with a specified distribution.

While the alternative hypothesis states that the data are not consistent with a specified distribution.

In this case study, the test is for a nose distribution. Thus the null hypothesis would be that the population has a normal distribution.
