Problem

The manager of a car park claims that the number of cars entering the car park follows a Poisson distribution with mean 2.82.8. The numbers of cars entering the car park are recorded on a working day during successive 5-minute periods. The following table contains the observed frequencies, together with most of the expected frequencies and their contributions to the χ2\chi^2-test statistic.

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。

先求泊松分布取 33 的概率,再乘以记录时段总数。用观测频数与期望频数求这一格的贡献。

The observed frequencies sum to 100100. Under X∼Poisson⁡(2.8)X\sim\operatorname{Poisson}(2.8),

p=100Pr⁡(X=3)=100e−2.82.833!=22.248374….p=100\Pr(X=3)=100\mathrm e^{-2.8}\frac{2.8^3}{3!}=22.248374\ldots.

Thus q=(29−p)2/p=2.048888…q=(29-p)^2/p=2.048888\ldots. To three significant figures, p=22.2p=22.2 and q=2.05q=2.05.

题目给定泊松均值,无须从数据估计。检查期望频数后,将七格贡献相加并用六个自由度。

答题过程

The null hypothesis is that Poisson⁡(2.8)\operatorname{Poisson}(2.8) fits the number of cars entering per five-minute period. The alternative is that it does not fit. All expected frequencies exceed 55, so no cells need to be combined. The statistic is

χ2= 2.739+0.241+2.152+2.048888… +0.425+3.753+0.037≈ 11.4.\begin{align*} \chi^2=&\,2.739+0.241+2.152+2.048888\ldots\\ &\,\hspace{2pt}+0.425+3.753+0.037\\ \approx&\,11.4. \end{align*}

With 7−1=67-1=6 degrees of freedom, the upper 5%5\% critical value is 12.59212.592. Since 11.4<12.59211.4<12.592, we fail to reject the null hypothesis. At the 5%5\% level there is insufficient evidence that the proposed Poisson model fails to fit the car counts.
