Question
A simple random sample of front-seat occupants involved in car crashes is obtained. Among 2827 occupants not wearing seat belts, 39 were killed. Among 7811
occupants wearing seat belts, 17 were killed. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that seat belts are effective in reducing fatalities. Complete parts (a) through
(c) below.
H1: P1 # P2
H1:Pq # P2
H1: P1 = P2
D. Ho: P1 = P2
H1: P1 <P2
O E. Ho: P1 = P2
H1: P1 # P2
F. Ho: P1 = P2
H1: P1 > P2
Identify the test statistic.
Z= 7.32
(Round to two decimal places as needed.)
Identify the P-value.
P-value = 0
(Round to three decimal places as needed.)
What is the conclusion based on the hypothesis test?
The P-value is
less than
the significance level of a = 0.05, so
reject
the null hypothesis. There
is
sufficient evidence to support the claim that the
fatality rate is higher for those not wearing seat belts.
b. Test the claim by constructing an appropriate confidence interval.
The appropriate confidence interval is < (P1 - P2) <
(Round to three decimal places as needed.)
