A clinical trial tested the effectiveness of bupropion hydrochloride in helping people who want to stop smoking. Results of abstinence from smoking 52 weeks after the treatment are summarized in the table below. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that whether a subject smokes is independent of whether the subject was treated with bupropion hydrochloride or a placebo.
