Answer

Step 1 of 10:Ho:  distribution of fatal accidents are uniformly distributed across months
Ha: distribution of fatal accidents are not uniformly distributed across months

Step 2 of 10:  null hypothesis indicate that the proportions of fatal accidents during each month  are equal

Step 3 of 10:  ho:for each month Pi =1/12

YHa:at least one month Pi \neq1/12

Step 4 of 10:  expected value for the number of fatal accidents that occurred in January. =np=158/12=13.17

Step 5 of 10: expected value for the number of fatal accidents that occurred in April =13.17

Step 6 of 10:

test statistic X2 =10.608    

  Step 7 of 10 :

degree of freedom =categories-1=11

  Step 8 of 10:

for 0.1 level and 11 df :crtiical value X2 =17.275

Step 9 of 10: fail to reject the null hypothesis at the 0.10  level

Step 10 of 10:  we can not conclude that distribution of fatal accidents are not uniformly distributed across months
