Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A. H0: accident are evenly distributed

H1: accident are not evenly distributed

B. The critical value is chi²(0.01,7) = 18.4753

C. The decision rule would be to reject h0 and accept h1 if the test statistic is higher than the critical value

D. Test statistic = summation (Oi-Ei)²/E

This gives 24.6 from the table.

E. Based on these calculations, test statistic is > than critical value

24.6> 18.4753

F. The inference is that accidents are not evenly distributed at 0.01 level of significance.
