Two physicians examined  results of 50  randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial

examining whether patients with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) improved

6 weeks after treatment with intramuscular magnesium. The group who received the magnesium

were compared to a group who received a placebo and outcome was feeling better.

Physician A believed 15 patients received magnesium as opposed to placebo. Physician B believed

20 patients received magensium as opposed to placebo. They both agreed on 9 patient cases having received magnesium as opposed to placebo. What is the Chi square result?
