题目
A town council has published its plans for redeveloping the town centre and residents are being asked whether they approve or disapprove. A random sample of 250 responses has been selected from residents in the four main streets in the town: North, East, South and West Streets. The results are shown in the table.
| North Street | East Street | South Street | West Street | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Approve | 33 | 54 | 42 | 26 |
| Disapprove | 19 | 39 | 28 | 9 |
Test, at the 5% significance level, whether the opinions of the residents are independent of the streets on which they live.

Let be that opinion on the plan is independent of street and that the two variables are associated. The row totals are and , and the column totals are . For example, the expected number approving on North Street is . The expected counts are
| Opinion | North | East | South | West |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Approve | 32.24 | 57.66 | 43.40 | 21.70 |
| Disapprove | 19.76 | 35.34 | 26.60 | 13.30 |
All exceed . The statistic is
There are degrees of freedom. The upper critical value is . Since the statistic is smaller, we fail to reject . There is insufficient evidence at the level that residents’ opinions depend on their street.
