Helmets Suppose
we are testing bikers to see if the rate of use of helmets has changed from a previous value of 79%. Suppose that in our random sample of 300 bikers, we see that 255 wear helmets.
a. About how many out of 300 would we expect to be wearing a helmet if the proportion who wear helmets is unchanged?
b. We observe 255 bikers out of a random sample of 300 wearing helmets. The p-value is 0.33. Explain the meaning of the p-value.
