Question
### Hypothesis Testing for Proportion of Internet-Connected TV Devices

In a Leichtman Research Group survey of 850 TV households, 75.1% had at least one Internet-connected TV device (e.g., Smart TV, standalone streaming device, connected video game console). A marketing executive claims the percentage of all homes with at least one Internet-connected TV device is 78%. This claim is tested using a 0.01 significance level. The normal distribution is used as an approximation to the binomial distribution, and the P-value method is applied.

---

**Steps for Hypothesis Testing**

#### Step 1: Define Hypotheses
- Let \( p \) denote the population proportion of homes with at least one Internet-connected TV device.
- **Null Hypothesis (\( H_0 \))**: \( p = 0.78 \)
- **Alternative Hypothesis (\( H_1 \))**: \( p \neq 0.78 \)

#### Step 2: Identify the Test Statistic
- Calculate the test statistic: \( z \)
  \[
  \text{(Round to two decimal places as needed.)}
  \]

#### Step 3: Calculate the P-value
- Determine the P-value associated with the test statistic.
  \[
  \text{(Round to three decimal places as needed.)}
  \]

#### Step 4: Conclusion
- State the conclusion regarding the null hypothesis:
  \[
  \text{[Reject/Fail to reject]} \quad \text{the null hypothesis.}
  \]
  - There is [sufficient/insufficient] evidence to [support/refute] the claim that the percentage of all homes with at least one Internet-connected TV device is equal to 78%.

### Notes
- When evaluating the claim, a significant difference from 78% would lead to the rejection of the null hypothesis at a 0.01 significance level, indicating sufficient evidence against the claim.
