Answer:

The observed value of the chi-square statistic is 34.71

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question';

Calculate the observed value of the chi-square statistic

The chi-square statistic will be;

∑[tex]_{i}[/tex][ ( O[tex]_{i}[/tex] - E[tex]_{i}[/tex])² / E[tex]_{i}[/tex] ]

here O[tex]_{i}[/tex] is observed frequency of [tex]_{i}[/tex]th class

E[tex]_{i}[/tex] is expected frequency of [tex]_{i}[/tex]th class

[tex]_{i}[/tex] = 1, 2 which denote the class of food experts who guess correctly and who didn't guess correctly

so

∈[tex]_{i}[/tex] = n × probability of not guessing correctly = 168 × 2/3 = 112

∈1 = n × probability of guessing correctly 168 × 1/3 = 56

so

∑[tex]_{i}[/tex][ ( O[tex]_{i}[/tex] - E[tex]_{i}[/tex])² / E[tex]_{i}[/tex] ] = [ ( 92 - 56)² / 56 ] + [ ( 76 - 112)² / 112 ]

= 1296/56 + 1296/112

= 23.14 + 11.57

= 34.71

Therefore, the observed value of the chi-square statistic is 34.71
