O Ho: The distributions are the same.
H: The distributions are different.
(b) Find the value of the chi-square statistic for the sample. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
Are all the expected frequencies greater than 5?
O Yes
O No
What sampling distribution will you use?
binomial
O normal
