Given that Z obtained value =1.87 Level of significance=0.05 We have to find 1..Is this difference…

Question

Let’s say that I want to test a hypothesis that drivers who are pooled over driving a sports car receive speeding fines that are higher than drivers operating other types of cars. Using a large sample (n over 30), I find that Zobt=1.87.

Is this difference statistically significant (i.e., would I reject the null) at α=0.05 level? Why/why not?

Would I reject the null if this was a non-directional (two-tailed) test at α=0.05 level? In other words, if the problem was asking to examine whether driving a sports car makes a difference in speeding fines.

Why/why not?
