determine the percentage of imported cars sold at the dealership. In the conclusion, the hypothesis will either be accepted or rejected after determining the actual probability. The level of significance to be used for this calculation is .05 or 95% confidence level. Numerical Hypothesis X1: Selling price in dollars X2: Selling price in thousands of dollars X3: Age of buyer X4: 0=Domestic, 1=Imported 80 Autos Sold Ho- p= .5 (The true hypothesis should be that out of the 80 cars that were sold
