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.

1) Test assumptions and make a decision (please provide written evidence to support your decision):

2) Inferential statistic(s) and p-value(s):

3) Decision:

Statistics that allow for inferences or estimates about the population. Inferential statistics enable analysts come to conclusions about the population based on sample data. Inferential statistics cover the basics of inferential statistics, all kinds of hypotheses tests and their confidence intervals, design of experiments, and statistical power and errors. It also includes point estimation techniques, limit theorems, sampling distributions, approximations, and bounds. Correlation, regression, and association are also covered under inferential statistics to infer relationships between variables.
