Roll two dice and record the difference 2019-12-09
From Barbara:
Suppose you roll two dice 100 times. Each time you record their difference (always subtracting the smaller one from the bigger one to get a positive difference). The possible values you get are 0,1,2,3,4 and 5. You record the frequency of each value in the following table:
Difference of two dice 0 1 2 3 4 5
Observed frequency 12 31 26 13 10 8
Let your null hypothesis be that the dice are fair, and the alternative hypothesis be that they are not fair. Using a confidence level of α = 0.10, test the null hypothesis by a goodness-of-fit test.

Hint: begin by
completing table:
x 0 1 2 3 4 5
f(x)
