Ho: row and column factors are independent
Ha: they are not independent
-----
I ran a Chi-Sq Test on the data and got the following results:
Test statistic: Chi-Sq = 24.59
p-value = 6.075x10^-5
------
Since the p-value is less than 5%, reject Ho.
The test results do not support saying the row
and column factors are independent.
