Upon leaving an assembly area, production items are examined and some of them are found to be in need of either further work or total scrapping. Tags on a sample of 150 items that failed final inspection show both the recommended action and the identity of the inspector who examined the item. The summary information for the sample is shown below. At the 0.10 level, is the recommended action independent of the inspector? Based on the chi-square table, what is the most accurate statement that can be made about the p-value for the test?
