A true-false examination was constructed with the answers running in the following sequence: T F F T F T F T T F T F F T F T F T T F Does this sequence indicate a departure from randomness in the arrangement of T and F answers?

Respuesta :

Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

lets use a significance level of = 0.1

Determine if the sequence indicates randomness

First step :

H0 : pattern is random

H1 : pattern not random

n1 ( number of true answers ) = 10

n2 ( number of false answers ) = 10

also number of runs for T = 5

       number of runs for F = 5

Total number of runs = 5+ 5 = 10

Given that critical value at 0.05 = 23

we will reject the null hypothesis ( i.e the sequence departs from randomness )
