A statistics student believes that black cars are less likely to receive tickets for moving violations. Black cars make up 19% of all cars manufactured. The student randomly selects 70 moving violation records and finds that 10 of them involved black cars. The P-value for the test of the hypotheses, H,:p = 0.19 and H:p < 0.19, is 0.24. What is the correct interpretation of this value? O There is a 24% chance of a black car receiving a moving violation. O Assuming the true proportion of black cars that receive moving violations is 0.19, there is a 24% probability that the null hypothesis is true. O Assuming the true proportion of black cars that receive moving violations is 0.19, there is a 24% probability that the sample proportion would be 0.15 or less by chance alone. O Assuming the true proportion of black cars that receive moving violations is less than 0.19, there is a 24% probability that the sample proportion would be 0.15 or less by chance alone.

Question

A statistics student believes that black cars are less likely to receive tickets for moving violations. Black cars make up 19% of all cars manufactured. The student randomly selects 70 moving violation records and finds that 10 of them involved black cars. The P-value for the test of the hypotheses, . What is the correct interpretation of this value?

There is a 24% chance of a black car receiving a moving violation.
Assuming the true proportion of black cars that receive moving violations is 0.19, there is a 24% probability that the null hypothesis is true.
 
Assuming the true proportion of black cars that receive moving violations is 0.19, there is a 24% probability that the sample proportion would be 0.15 or less by chance alone.
Assuming the true proportion of black cars that receive moving violations is less than 0.19, there is a 24% probability that the sample proportion would be 0.15 or less by chance alone.
A statistics student believes that black cars are less likely to receive tickets for moving violations. Black cars make
up 19% of all cars manufactured. The student randomly selects 70 moving violation records and finds that 10 of
them involved black cars. The P-value for the test of the hypotheses, Ho:p = 0.19 and H, p < 0.19, is 0.24. What is the
correct interpretation of this value?
There is a 24% chance of a black car receiving a moving violation.
O Assuming the true proportion of black cars that receive moving violations is 0.19, there is a 24% probability that
the null hypothesis is true.
O Assuming the true proportion of black cars that receive moving violations is 0.19, there is a 24% probability that
the sample proportion would be 0.15 or less by chance alone.
Assuming the true proportion of black cars that receive moving violations is less than 0.19, there is a 24%
probability that the sample proportion would be 0.15 or less by chance alone.
