题目
A statistician believes that the number of telephone calls received by an advice centre in a 10-minute interval can be modelled by the Poisson distribution . The number of calls received in a randomly chosen 10-minute interval was recorded on each of 100 days. The results are summarised in the table, together with some of the expected frequencies corresponding to the distribution .
| Number of calls | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 or more |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Observed frequency | 10 | 18 | 35 | 21 | 11 | 4 | 1 |
| Expected frequency | 14.957 | 28.418 | 26.997 | 1.322 |
(a) Complete the table.
(b) Carry out a goodness of fit test, at the 10% significance level, to determine whether the statistician’s belief is reasonable.

一名统计学家认为,某咨询中心在 10 分钟区间内接到的电话数量可以用 Poisson 分布 建模。在 100 天中,每天随机选取一个 10 分钟区间并记录接到的电话数量。结果总结在下表中,同时列出了一些与分布 对应的期望频数。
| 电话数量 | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 或更多 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 观察频数 | 10 | 18 | 35 | 21 | 11 | 4 | 1 |
| 期望频数 | 14.957 | 28.418 | 26.997 | 1.322 |
(a) 完成表格。
(b) 在 10% 显著性水平下进行拟合优度检验,以判断该统计学家的看法是否合理。
原卷通用作答要求
Answer all questions. You should use a calculator where appropriate.
You must show all necessary working clearly; no marks will be given for unsupported answers from a calculator.
Give non-exact numerical answers correct to 3 significant figures, or 1 decimal place for angles in degrees, unless a different level of accuracy is specified in the question.
请回答所有题目。适当时应使用计算器。必须清楚展示所有必要的计算过程;仅给出计算器答案而没有过程,不予评分。除非题目另有精度要求,非精确数值答案保留 3 位有效数字,以度为单位的角度保留 1 位小数。

Test that fits the number of calls per ten minutes against that it does not fit. Combine the last three categories. The resulting observed counts are , with expected counts shown to three decimal places. All pooled expected counts exceed .
Using unrounded expected counts,
There are degrees of freedom. The upper critical value is . Since , we reject . The data give sufficient evidence at the level that does not fit the call counts.
