Age (years) | Low | Medium | High |
Less than 25 | 35 | 21 | 35 |
25 up to 40 | 18 | 49 | 58 |
40 up to 60 | 45 | 71 | 81 |
60 and older | 58 | 80 | 99 |
a. State the decision rule. (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.)
H0: Age and pressure are not related.
H1: Age and pressure are related.
b. Compute the value of chi-square. (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.)
