15.22 A student team examined parked cars in four different suburban shopping malls. One hundred vehicles
were examined in each location. Research question: At α = .05, does vehicle type vary by
mall location? (Data are from a project by MBA students Steve Bennett, Alicia Morais, Steve
Olson, and Greg Corda.) Vehicles

hazard for many hours. A Boeing 727 co-pilot collected 61 noise observations using a handheld
sound meter. Noise level is defined as “Low” (under 88 decibels), “Medium” (88 to 91 decibels),

Ho: certainty and credits are independent
Ha: they are dependent

I ran a Chi-Sq Test on the 3 x 3 data set to get:
Chi-Sq = 14.7638...
p-value = 0.00522...
---------------
Conclusion: Since P-value is less than 1%, Reject Ho.
Certainty and credits are dependent

got the following:
Chi-Sq = 24.53154...
p-value = 0.017201..
