A study of the effect of seatbelt use in head-on car collisions found that drivers using a seatbelt had a 64.1% survival rate, while drivers not using a seatbelt had a 41.5% survival rate. If seatbelts have no effect on survival rate, there is less that a 0.0001 chance of getting these results. The probability shows that the sample results ____(could or could not) have occurred by chance. It appears that there _______ (is or is not) sufficient evidence to conclude that seatbelts do have an effect on survival rate.

Answer:

The correct option are;

1) Could not

2) Is

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters given are;

The survival rate of drivers using seat-belt = 67%

The survival rate of drivers not using seat-belt = 41.5%

The chance of getting the survival rate results without a correlation with the use of seat-belt < 0.0001

Given that the chance of obtaining the given survival rates without the seat-belt having an effect on survival rate is less than 0.01 percent we have;

The probability shows that the sample results could not have occurred by chance. It appears that there is sufficient evidence to conclude that seat-belts do have an effect on survival rate.
