employers would like to believe that employees are absent equally during the week. Suppose a random
sample of 68 managers were asked on which day of the week they had the highest number of employee
absences. The results were distributed as in Table. For the population of employees, do the days for the
highest number of absences occur with equal frequencies during a five-day work week? Test at a 0.05%
significance level.
