Question

Transcribed Image Text:A certain drug is used to treat asthma. In a clinical trial of the drug, 26 of 261 treated
subjects experienced headaches (based on data from the manufacturer). The
accompanying calculator display shows results from a test of the claim that less than 9%
of treated subjects experienced headaches. Use the normal distribution as an
approximation to the binomial distribution and assume a 0.01 significance level to
complete parts (a) through (e) below.
a. Is the test two-tailed, left-tailed, or right-tailed?
O Left-tailed test
Right tailed test
Two-tailed test
