Ho: rows and column factors are independent
Ho: they are not independent
alpha = 1%
---------------
Run a Che-Sq Test on this 4 x 3 matrix
Test Statistis: Chi-Sq = 282.26...
p-value = 5.15(10^-58) which is practically zero.
----------------
Conclusion: Since p-value is less than 1%, Reject Ho.
Age and job pressure are not independent factors.
