Problem

The number of breakdowns on a particular section of road is recorded each day over a period of 90 days. It is suggested that the number of breakdowns follows a Poisson distribution with mean 3.5. The data is summarised in the table, together with some of the expected frequencies resulting from the suggested Poisson distribution.

Number of breakdowns per day012345678 or more
Observed frequency0513172116954
Expected frequency2.7189.51216.64616.99311.8953.4692.407

(a) Complete the table.

[2]

(b) Carry out a goodness of fit test, at the 10% significance level, to determine whether or not Po⁡(3.5)\operatorname{Po}(3.5) is a good fit to the data.

(a)

解法一

思路

把泊松分布在 33 和 66 的概率分别乘以 9090,得到缺失的期望频数。

答题过程

For N∼Poisson⁡(3.5)N\sim\operatorname{Poisson}(3.5), the expected count at jj is 90e−3.53.5j/j!90\mathrm e^{-3.5}3.5^j/j!. At j=3j=3 and j=6j=6, this gives 19.42119.421 and 6.9396.939 respectively to three decimal places.

两端分别合并小期望频数的格。均值是给定值,合并后只因总频数约束扣除一个自由度。

答题过程

展开

Test H0H_0 that Poisson⁡(3.5)\operatorname{Poisson}(3.5) fits the daily breakdown counts against H1H_1 that it does not fit. Combine 00 with 11, giving observed and expected frequencies 55 and 12.22994…12.22994\ldots. Combine 77 with 88 or more, giving 99 and 5.87592…5.87592\ldots. The resulting seven expected frequencies all exceed 55.

The statistic calculated with unrounded expectations is

 χ2=∑(O−E)2E= (5−12.22994…)212.22994…+ (13−16.64630…)216.64630…+⋯= 10.00909….\begin{align*} &\,\chi^2=\sum\frac{(O-E)^2}{E}\\ =&\,\frac{(5-12.22994\ldots)^2}{12.22994\ldots}\\ +&\,\frac{(13-16.64630\ldots)^2}{16.64630\ldots}+\cdots\\ =&\,10.00909\ldots. \end{align*}

There are 7−1=67-1=6 degrees of freedom, giving an upper 10%10\% critical value of 10.64510.645. Since the statistic is smaller, we fail to reject H0H_0. There is insufficient evidence at the 10%10\% level that the proposed Poisson distribution fails to fit the daily counts.
