Step 1:Write out the null and alternative hypotheses in words appropriate to the situation.

Step 2:Calculate the expected counts for each entry in the contingency table. Show all formulas and calculations.

Step 3:Verify the conditions for the chi square test are satisfied: independence and sample size.

Step 4: Calculate the chi square test statistic and degrees of freedom.Show all formulas and calculations.

Step 5:Find the p-value

Step 6: Evaluate the hypothesis by comparing the p-value to a 5% significance (alpha) level (either reject orfail to reject the null hypothesis) and give your reasoning.

Step 7:Provide a conclusion in the context of the problem.
