The U.S. Department of Transportation, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, reported that 77% of all fatally injured automobile drivers were intoxicated. A random sample of 51 records of automobile driver fatalities in Kit Carson County, Colorado, showed that 37 involved an intoxicated driver. Do these data indicate that the population proportion of driver fatalities related to alcohol is less than 77% in Kit Carson County? Use α = 0.10. (a)

What is the level of significance?

State the null and alternate hypotheses. Will you use a left-tailed, right-tailed, or two-tailed test?

Ho: p = 0.77; H1: p > 0.77; right-tailed

Ho: p = 0.77; H1: p < 0.77; left-tailed

Ho: p = 0.77; H1: p ≠ 0.77; two-tailed

Ho: p < 0.77; H1: p = 0.77; left-tailed

(b) What sampling distribution will you use? Do you think the sample size is sufficiently large?

The normal distribution, since the sample size is large.

The t distribution, since the sample size is large.

What is the value of the sample test statistic? (Use 2 decimal places.)

(c) Find the P-value of the test statistic. (Use 4 decimal places.)

Sketch the sampling distribution and show the area corresponding to the P-value.

d) Based on your answers in parts (a) to (c), will you reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis? Are the data statistically significant at level α?

At the α = 0.10 level, we reject the null hypothesis and conclude the data are not statistically significant.

At the α = 0.10 level, we fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude the data are not statistically significant.

At the α = 0.10 level, we reject the null hypothesis and conclude the data are statistically significant.

At the α = 0.10 level, we fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude the data are statistically significant.

(e) State your conclusion in the context of the application.

Reject the null hypothesis, there is sufficient evidence that the true proportion of driver fatalities related to alcohol is less than 0.77 in Kit Carson County.

Fail to reject the null hypothesis, there is insufficient evidence that the true proportion of driver fatalities related to alcohol is less than 0.77 in Kit Carson County.

Fail to reject the null hypothesis, there is sufficient evidence that the true proportion of driver fatalities related to alcohol is less than 0.77 in Kit Carson County.

Reject the null hypothesis, there is insufficient evidence that the true proportion of driver fatalities related to alcohol is less than 0.77 in Kit Carson County.

You are part of a team investigating the identifying motor vehicle accidents. A multiple regression model is to be constructed to predict the number of motor vehicle accidents in a town per year based upon the population of the town, the number of recorded traffic offenses per year and the average annual temperature in the town.

Data has been collected on 30 randomly selected towns:

Number of motor vehicle accidents per year	Population (× 1000)	No. of recorded traffic offences (× 100)	Average temperature °F

5). Finally, which of the following would you use to write out the results in an APA formatted results section? Note that this one is tricky – some answer options differ in only a single number or word! Pay close attention to details here.

A. We ran a One Way ANOVA with condition (FITD vs. DITF vs. Control) as our dependent variable and willingness to participate in the 30 minute study as our independent variable. The One Way ANOVA was significant, F(2, 87) = 4.05, p < .05. Tukey post hoc tests showed that participants were significantly less willing to participate in the 30 minute study in the control condition (M = 6.63, SD = 1.30) than in both the FITD condition (M = 7.40, SD = 1.00) and the DITF condition (M = 7.37, SD = 1.22), though the DITF and FITD conditions did not differ from each other.

B. We ran a One Way ANOVA with condition (FITD vs. DITF vs. Control) as our independent variable and willingness to participate in the 30 minute study as our dependent variable. The One Way ANOVA was significant, F(2, 87) = 4.05, p < .05. Tukey post hoc tests showed that participants were significantly less willing to participate in the 30 minute study in the control condition (M = 6.63, SD = 1.30) than in both the FITD condition (M = 7.40, SD = 1.00) and the DITF condition (M = 7.37, SD = 1.22), though the DITF and FITD conditions did not differ from each other.

C. We ran a One Way ANOVA with condition (FITD vs. DITF vs. Control) as our independent variable and willingness to participate in the 30 minute study as our dependent variable. The One Way ANOVA was significant, F(2, 87) = 4.05, p < .001. Tukey post hoc tests showed that participants were significantly less willing to participate in the 30 minute study in the control condition (M = 6.63, SD = 1.30) than in both the FITD condition (M = 7.40, SD = 1.00) and the DITF condition (M = 7.37, SD = 1.22), though the DITF and FITD conditions did not differ from each other.

D. We ran a One Way ANOVA with condition (FITD vs. DITF vs. Control) as our independent variable and willingness to participate in the 30 minute study as our dependent variable. The One Way ANOVA was not significant, F(2, 89) = 4.05, p > .05. Since p was greater than .05, there was no need to conduct post hoc tests.

E. We ran a One Way ANOVA with condition (FITD vs. DITF vs. Control) as our independent variable and willingness to participate in the 30 minute study as our dependent variable. The One Way ANOVA was significant, F(2, 87) = 4.05, p < .05. Tukey post hoc tests showed that participants were significantly less willing to do the study in the control condition (M = 6.63, SD = 1.30) than in both the FITD condition (M = 7.40, SD = 1.00) and the DITF condition (M = 7.37, SD = 1.22). In addition, those in the DITF condition were significantly less willing to participate in the 30 minute study than those in the FITD condition.
