Nancy Giggles has not been doing well on statistics examinations. She decides to sample 12 of her friends to determine the number of hours spent studying for Test 3 and the score out of 100 received on that test. The results:

2. David Gallano, a wine merchant, has selected opinions on grape wine quality from a random sample of his customers. The customers tasted wine made from grapes grown in three regions of the country. The customers rated wine quality on a scale of 1 (best) to 4 (worst). The sample data looks like:

Customer Quality Rating of Wine by Grape-growing region
Quality Rating
Growing Region
I Growing Region
II Growing Region
III Row Total
1 15 10 6 31
2 7 13 12 32
3 11 12 8 31
4 3 8 15 26
Column Total
36 43 41 120

David wants to know whether quality ratings are independent of the grape-growing region. Can you conclude at a 95% confidence that the quality rating is independent of the growing region?
