The National Transportation Safety Board publishes statistics on the number of automobile crashes that people in various age gro

ups have. A researcher claims the population proportion of young drivers, ages 18 – 24, having accidents is greater than 12%. Her study examined 1000 young drivers ages 18 – 24 and found that 134 had an accident this year. Test at α = .05. a) State H0 and Ha b) Find the critical value, show work c) Find the appropriate test statistic, show work d) Do a P - value test e) Make a decision to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis and interpret the results.

Answer:

a) Null hypothesis:p\leq 0.12  

Alternative hypothesis:p > 0.12  

b) z_{\alpha}=1.64

c) z=\frac{0.134 -0.12}{\sqrt{\frac{0.12(1-0.12)}{1000}}}=1.362  

d) p_v =P(z>1.362)=0.0866  

e) For this case since the statistic is lower than the critical value and the p value higher than the significance level we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis so then we don't have information to conclude that the true proportion is higher than 0.12

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

n=1000 represent the random sample selected

X=134 represent the number of young drivers ages 18 – 24 that had an accident

\hat p=\frac{134}{1000}=0.134 estimated proportion of young drivers ages 18 – 24 that had an accident

p_o=0.12 is the value that we want to verify

\alpha=0.05 represent the significance level

Confidence=95% or 0.95

z would represent the statistic

p_v{/tex} represent the p valuePart aWe want to verify if the population proportion of young drivers, ages 18 – 24, having accidents is greater than 12%:  Null hypothesis:[tex]p\leq 0.12  

Alternative hypothesis:p > 0.12  

The statistic would be given by:

z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}} (1)  

Part b

For this case since we are conducting a right tailed test we need to find a critical value in the normal standard distribution who accumulates 0.05 of the area in the right and we got:

z_{\alpha}=1.64

Part c

For this case the statistic would be given by:

z=\frac{0.134 -0.12}{\sqrt{\frac{0.12(1-0.12)}{1000}}}=1.362  

Part d

The p value can be calculated with the following probability:

p_v =P(z>1.362)=0.0866  

Part e

For this case since the statistic is lower than the critical value and the p value higher than the significance level we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis so then we don't have information to conclude that the true proportion is higher than 0.12

Ind the next term for the given sequence.52, 45, 38, 31,
o-na [289]
The answer is 24. To get from one term to the next, you have to find the difference. To get from 52 to 45, you minus 7. It is the same with the other terms. So 31 - 7 = 24

This list shows the lengths in feet of the 25 longest bridges in the United States.
Paladinen [302]

The length of the intervals of the given frequency table is

500 ft.

The given list shows the lengths in feet of the 25 longest bridges in the United States.

we have to determine the median and mode of the bridge data.

The median is the middle number of the data set arranged in ascending order.

1010, 1053, 1200, 1207, 1380, 1470, 1495, 1596, 1600, 1600, 1600, 1632, 1750, 1800, 1850, 2000, 2150, 2150, 2300, 2310, 2800, 3500, 3800, 4200, 4260.

The median is 1750.

Mode is the number that appears most often in the data set.

1010, 1053, 1200, 1207, 1380, 1470, 1495, 1596, 1600, 1600, 1600, 1632, 1750, 1800, 1850, 2000, 2150, 2150, 2300, 2310, 2800, 3500, 3800, 4200, 4260

The mode is 1600.

Therefore the correct option is Median: 1750, Mode: 1600

So the length of the intervals of the given frequency table is

500 ft.
