Chapter 11.2, Problem 12BSC

In Exercises 5-20, conduct the hypothesis test and provide the test statistic and the P-value and/or critical value, and state the conclusion.

12. Births Records of randomly selected births were obtained and categorized according to the day of the week that they occurred (based on data from the National Center (or Health Statistics). Because babies are unfamiliar with our schedule of weekdays, a reasonable claim is that births occur on the different days with equal frequency. See the table that follows. Use a 0.01 significance level to test that claim. Can you provide an explanation for the result?

Day	Sun	Mon	Tues	Wed	Thurs	Fri	Sat
Number of Births	77	110	124	122	120	123	97
