The given distribution of the number of defective blades produced in a single shift in a factory over 100 shifts is given below.

Number of defective blades 0 1 2 3 4
Number of shifts 12 14 23 18 33

Test whether the number of defective blades follows a Poisson distribution with mean =0.44 Use α=0.05. Test the null hypothesis and alternative hypoyhesis.

The quality grade of electric components produced in two factories is given in the table given below.

Factory Quality of grade Total
Poor Medium Good Excellent
A 136 165 151 148 600
B 31 58 55 36 180
Total 167 223 206 184 780

Test whether there is any association between factories and quality of grades. Test the 5% level of significanceand test the null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis.
