Car............ 44...... 49...... 36......... 64..... 193
Minivan........ 21...... 15.......18......... 13...... 67
Full-sized Van.. 2....... 3....... 3.......... 2...... 10

--------------------------------------------------------------
Chi-Sq Test
Ho: row and column factors are not related
Ha: they are related or dependent
--------------------------------------
Run a Chi-Sq Test to get:
Test Stat: 24.5315...
p-value:0.0172...
df=(5-1)(4-1) = 12
Conclusion:
Since p-value is less than 5%, reject Ho
There is a relation between car type and location
