According to a certain government agency for a large country, the proportion of fatal traffic accidents in the country in which the driver had a positive blood alcohol concentration (BAC) is 0.37. Suppose a random sample of 114 traffic fatalities in a certain region results in 53 that involved a positive BAC. Does the sample evidence suggest that the region has a higher proportion of traffic fatalities involving a positive BAC than the country at the a = 0.01 level of significance? Because npo (1- Po) 10, the sample size is 5% of the population size, and the sample the requirements for testing the hypothesis satisfied. (Round to one decimal place as needed.)

Question
According to a certain government agency for a large country, the proportion of fatal traffic accidents in the country in which the driver had a positive
blood alcohol concentration (BAC) is 0.37. Suppose a random sample of 114 traffic fatalities in a certain region results in 53 that involved a positive
BAC. Does the sample evidence suggest that the region has a higher proportion of traffic fatalities involving a positive BAC than the country at the
a = 0.01 level of significance?
Because npo (1- Po)
|10, the sample size is
5% of the population size, and the sample
the requirements for testing the hypothesis
satisfied.
(Round to one decimal place as needed.)
