Question:

Each model year seems to introduce new colors and different hues for a wide array of vehicles, from luxury cars, to full-size or intermediate models, to compacts and sports cars, to light trucks. However, white and silver/gray continue to make the top five or six colors across all of these categories of vehicles. The top five colors and their percentage of the market share for compact/sports cars are shown in the following table.

Silver Color Black White/ Pearl Blue Gray 16 Percent 17 10 20 14


To verify the figures, a random sample consisting of 250 compact/sports cars was taken and the color of the vehicles recorded. The sample provided the following counts for the categories given above: 60, 51, 43, 35, and 30, respectively.

a. Is any category missing in the classification? How many vehicles belong to that category?

b. Is there sufficient evidence to indicate that our percentages of compact/sports cars differ from those given? Find the approximate p-value for the test.
