Question
Data from the Motor Vehicle Department indicate that 80% of all licensed drivers are older than age 25. Information on the age of n = 50 people who recently received speeding tickets was sourced by researchers who are interested in whether the age distribution for the sample of drivers who recently received speeding tickets is different from the age distribution for the population of licensed drivers. 17 people are 25 or younger, 33 people are older than 25.

- Submit a short and broad description of prevalence of gambling in Australia. You should draw information/evidence from the academic literature, government sources, and statistics from ABS or other authorities. No web sources should be used. You should focus on and address the following questions: How many/What percentage of Australian adults engaged in gambling in 2015? Are these numbers high compared to some other countries? Do Indigenous Australians gamble more often than non-Indigenous Australians? Are your sample statistics comparable with the findings from those in the literature? If not, cite the main reasons (hint: you should pay attention to who are in your sample). Other requirements: The description should be no more than one-page (excluding the reference list) with a font size not less than Calibri 11. All sources should be properly cited and referenced.
