α = 0.05 df = 4 – 1 = 3
As shown in the H-test is based on the information provided, the significance level is α = 0.05, and the
degree of freedom is df = 4 – 1 = 3. Pearson’s chi-square test is utilized to determine the rejection region
for this data, wherein chi-squarer test is R={ χ 2: χ 2>7.815 }. A chi-square test is a statistical
hypothesis test used in analyzing contingency in a large sample size.

The H statistic is computed as shown in the following formula:

Since it is observed that χ2=33.341> χ c =7.815, it is then concluded that the null hypothesis is rejected.

It is concluded that the null hypothesis Ho is rejected. Therefore, there is not enough evidence to claim
that not all population medians are equal, at the α=0.05 significance level.
