A study published in the American Journal of Public Health was conducted to determine whether the use of seat belts in motor vehicles depends on ethnic status in San Diego County. A sample of 792 children treated for injuries sustained from motor vehicle accidents was obtained, and each child was classified according to (1) ethnic status (Hispanic or non-Hispanic) and (2) seat belt usage (worn or not worn) during the accident. The number of children in each category is given in the table below. Ethnicity Seat belt worn Hispanic Non-Hispanic Total Yes 30 149 179 No 280 333 613 Total 310 482 792 She is interested to use this table to do a test of independence with a level of significance of 0.01. What is the conclusion of this test?
