She randomly selected 300 pedestrian deaths, recorded the day of the week on which the death occurred, and obtained the following results (the data are based on information obtained from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety).

Day of the Week Frequency Day of the Week Frequency Thursday 39 41 Sunday Monday 40 49 Friday Saturday 30 61 Tuesday Wed
