  7. Which Jersey Shore do PA Teenagers Go To? • Ho: The distribution of visited shore points is uniformly distributed • Ha: The distribution of visited shore points is not uniformly distributed • P(χ2>140.4/df=13)= 1.750 x 10-23 • We reject Ho because the p-value of 1.750 x 10-23 is less than α=0.05. • The distribution of visited shore points is not uniformly distributed

Which Shore Food do PA Teenagers Enjoy? • Ho: The distribution of shore foods is uniformly distributed • Ha: The distribution of shore foods is not uniformly distributed • P(χ2>45.43/df=7)= 1.128 x 10-7 • We reject Ho because the p-value of 1.128 x 10-7 is less than α=0.05. • The distribution of shore foods is not uniformly distributed

  15. Which Activity at the Shore do PA Teenagers Enjoy? • Ho: The distribution of shore activities is uniformly distributed • Ha: The distribution of shore activities is not uniformly distributed • P(χ2>107.8/df=7)= 2.625 x 10-20 • We reject Ho because the p-value of 1.128 x 10-7 is less than α=0.05. • The distribution of shore activities is not uniformly distributed

  18. What is the average amount of time a PA teenager spends per day at the beach? ASSUMPTIONS • SRS • Normal population or n ≥ 30 • Population ≥ 10n CHECKS • Stated • n=70 • There are more than 700 PA teenagers that vacation at the Jersey Shore I Sample T-Int Conditions met  t distribution  I sample T-Interval

  19. What is the average amount of time a PA teenager spends per day at the beach? • We are 95% confident that the interval for the population mean of hours spent on the beach per day is between 4.808 and 5.82057 hours. • In recurring samples of the same size (n=70), the true average of hours spent on the beach per day will catch the interval 95% of the time.

  20. Overall Conclusions • Overall, PA teenagers favor Ocean City and Wildwood over the other Jersey Shore Points • When asking common activities, boardwalk was often chosen • Pizza was the most liked “shore food” among PA teenagers • The distribution of visited shore points, shore foods, and activities at the shore are not uniformly distributed among PA teenagers

  21. Application to Population • The population at large could use our information • Hot spots for vacationers • Most common things to eat on vacation • Fun activities to do when at the shore

  22. Possible Bias & Error • Response Bias • Online survey • Respondents may have fabricated their answers because other people could read them • Voluntary Response • Drexel Class of 2015 Facebook Group • Asked for responses from Pennsylvanian Teenagers • Respondents had the option whether they wanted to answer • Undercoverage • We had 212 responses, but we only took every three so we had 70 subjects • Decent population, but there may not be a lot of variability
