Explanation / Answer
Degree of freedom = (r-1)(c-1) = (2-1)*(4-1) = 1*3 = 3
Reject H0 if X2 > 7.8147
Expected counts: Ei,j = (Row i total*Column j total)/sample size
The contingency table below provides the following information: the observed cell totals, (the expected cell totals) and [the chi-square statistic for each cell].
Chi square = 17.23
Since chi square > critical chi square, reject null hypothesis and there is sufficient evidence to suggest there is a relationship between quality and manufacturer
