A few years​ ago, a census bureau reported that​ 67.4% of American families owned their homes. Census data reveal that the ownership rate in one small city is much lower. The city council is debating a plan to offer tax breaks to​ first-time home buyers in order to encourage people to become homeowners. They decide to adopt the plan on a​ 2-year trial basis and use the data they collect to make a decision about continuing the tax breaks. Since this plan costs the city tax​ revenues, they will continue to use it only if there is strong evidence that the rate of home ownership is increasing.
