Answer to Question 1

H0 : P = 0.15 against H1: P < 0.15
Test statistic
Z = (.122 - .15 ) / = -1.56
Since p-value = P(Z < -1.56 ) = 0.0594, we reject null hypothesis at  = 0.10. There is sufficient evidence that the actual proportion of local commuters car-pooling is less than 15.

Answer to Question 2
