The average annual miles driven per vehicle in the United States is 11.1 thousand miles, with σ ≈ 600 miles. Suppose that a random sample of 31 vehicles owned by residents of Chicago showed that the average mileage driven last year was 10.8 thousand miles. Does this indicate that the average miles driven per vehicle in Chicago is different from (higher or lower than) the national average? Use a 0.05 level of significance. What are we testing in this problem? single meansingle proportion     What is the value of the sample test statistic? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) (c) Find (or estimate) the P-value.

2-Proportion Test

In a 2-proportion test, two separate proportions are measured at the same time, and their similarity is evaluated. It is also known as a 2-proportion z-test, and a comparison of two different proportions is done in this method.
