Prior studies examining this phenomenon concluded that 12% of all murders occurred on Monday, 18% occurred on Tuesday, 10% occurred on Wednesday, 10% on Thursday, 20% on Friday, 20% on Saturday, and 10% on Sunday. Conduct a one group Chi square and then interpret the printouts as we discussed in class.
