    This document presents data from experiments on the impact of solid waste landfills on the environment. Tables show physicochemical parameters, fungi counts, and bacteria counts from soil and water samples at different distances from a landfill. Statistical tests reject the hypothesis that solid waste landfills have no significant impact on the environment.

    CHAPTER FOUR

    PRESENTATION ANALYSIS INTERPRETATION OF DATA

    4.1 Introduction

    Efforts will be made at this stage to present, analyze and interpret the data collected during the
    experiment. This presentation will be based on the experiments carried out. The result of this exercise is
    shown on the tabular form below. The researcher employed simple percentage in the analysis.

    DATA ANALYSIS

    The data collected from the experiment and practical’s are shown below

    TEST OF HYPOTHESES

    Solid waste land fill has no significant impact on the environment.

    From table two and three it shows that solid waste land fill has significant impact on the environment.

    Test Statistics

    Solid waste land fill has no significant impact on the environment

    Chi-Square 19.331a

    D.f 3

    Asp. Sig. .000

    a. 0 cells (0.0%) have expected frequencies less than 5. The minimum expected cell frequency is 50m.

    Decision rule:

    There researcher therefore reject the null hypothesis that state that solid waste land fill has no
    significant impact on the environment as the calculated value of 19.331 is greater than the critical value
    of 7.82

    Therefore the alternate hypothesis is accepted that state that solid waste land fill has a significant
    impact on the environment.

    TEST OF HYPOTHESIS TWO

    There is no significant relationship between solid waste land fill emission and environmental pollution.
    From table one, It’s observed that there is no significant relationship between solid waste land fill
    emission and environmental pollution.

    Test Statistics

    There is no significant relationship between solid waste land fill emission and environmental
    pollution.
