G A simple random sample of front-seat occupants involved in car crashes is obtained. Among 2950 occupants not wearing seat belts, 39 were killed. Among 7822 occupants wearing seat belts, 20 were killed. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that seat belts are effective in reducing fatalities. Complete parts (a) through (c) below. a. Test the claim using a hypothesis test. Consider the first sample to be the sample of occupants not wearing seat belts and the second sample to be the sample of occupants wearing seat belts. What are the null and alternative hypotheses for the hypothesis test? A. Upper H 0: p 1less than or equalsp 2 Upper H 1: p 1not equalsp 2 B. Upper H 0: p 1not equalsp 2 Upper H 1: p 1equalsp 2 C.

P-valueequals 0.000 (Round to three decimal places as needed.) What is the conclusion based on the hypothesis test?

The null and alternative hypothesis are:

Test statistic z = 6.687

P-value = 0

The null hypothesis is rejected.

There is enough evidence to support the claim that seat belts are effective in reducing fatalities.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a hypothesis test for the difference between proportions.

The claim is that seat belts are effective in reducing fatalities.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

The significance level is assumed to be 0.05.

The sample 1, of size n1=2950 has a proportion of p1=0.0132.

The sample 2, of size n2=7822 has a proportion of p2=0.0026.

The difference between proportions is (p1-p2)=0.0107.

p_d=p_1-p_2=0.0132-0.0026=0.0107

The pooled proportion, needed to calculate the standard error, is:

The estimated standard error of the difference between means is computed using the formula:

Then, we can calculate the z-statistic as:

This test is a right-tailed test, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a z-table):

As the P-value (0) is smaller than the significance level (0.05), the effect is significant.

The null hypothesis is rejected.

There is enough evidence to support the claim that seat belts are effective in reducing fatalities.
