Goodness-of-Fit Test · Exercise 9

The cumulative number of cases of a chronic disease reported for Santa Clara County is broken down by ethnicity as in.


The percentage of each ethnic group in Santa Clara County is as in.
\begin{array}{|c|c|c|}\hline \text{Ethnicity} & \text{% of Total County Population} & \text{Number Expected (round to two decimal places)} \\ \hline \text{White} & \text{42.9%} & \text{1,748.18} \\ \hline \text{Hispanic} & \text{26.7%} & \\ \hline \text{Black/African American} & \text{2.6%} & \\ \hline \text{Asian, Pacific Islander} & \text{27.8%} & \\ \hline & \text{Total = 100%} & \\ \hline\end{array}

If the ethnicities of patients followed the ethnicities of the total county population, fill in the expected number of cases per ethnic group.
Perform a goodness-of-fit test to determine whether the occurrence of disease cases follows the ethnicities of the general population of Santa Clara County.
