A random sample of residents from various income brackets were asked their opinion on tax reform for the country of Guyana. The data so gathered were analyzed by a statistician and the results he obtained using MINITAB are shown below:

Expected counts are printed below observed counts

 

                       Low                Middle            High                Total

For                  26                    7.5                   14                    115

                        (30.67)             (51.11)             (33.21)

 

Against           60                    95                    105                  260

                        (69.33)             (115.56)           (75.1)

Total               120                     200                  130                  450

Given Chi-sq = 0.71 + 11.17 + 11.12 + 1.27 + 3.66 + 11.89 + 9.8 + 0.33 + 5.25 = 55.2

DF = ??, p-value =???
