Question: Is there a significant difference in registration rates between students for Microsoft Office with Graphics and Web Development programmes?

Null Hypothesis (H₀): There is no significant difference in registration rates between students for Microsoft Office with Graphics and Web Development programmes.
To test if there's a significant difference in registration rates between students for Microsoft Office with Graphics and Web Development programmes, we can perform a statistical test. Given the data, a Chi-square test for independence is appropriate since we're comparing frequencies of categorical data (registrations for each programme). Let's proceed with the statistical test.

  • Programme Registration Counts: There are 530 registrations for 'Microsoft Office with Graphics' and 138 registrations for 'Web Design'.
