A car dealer suspects that the weather of the day of the test drive has an effect on the purchasing behavior. The car dealer recorded the observations in a cross-tab. Sunny Cloudy Rainy Total Purchase Made 6 4 0 Purchase NOT Made 0 4 6 Total Using a Chi-squared test, test the null hypothesis that weather and purchasing behavior are independent against the alternative that they are dependent.

Using a Chi-squared test, test the null hypothesis that weather and purchasing behavior are independent against the alternative that they are dependent.
The variables "Purchase Made," "Purchase NOT Made," Sunny", Cloudy," and "Rainy" are best characterized as
