After a series of debates on campuses, a political scientist daims that the proportion of college students who say they're interested in their district's election results is more than 65%. A poll is commissioned, and 173 out of a random sample of 260 college students say they're interested in their district's election results. Is there enough evidence to support the political scientist's claim at the 0.05 level of significance? Perform a one-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) State the null hypothesis H, and the alternative hypothesis H1. H, :0 H :0 (b) Determine the type of test statistic to use. (Choose one) D=0 OSO (c) Find the value of the test statistic. (Round to three or more decimal places.) ロ=ロ O
