The proportion p of residents in a community who recycle has traditionally been 60% . A policy maker claims that the proportion is less than 60% now that one of the recycling centers has been relocated. If 126 out of a random sample of 215 residents in the community said they recycle, is there enough evidence to support the policy maker's claim at the 0.10 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 H0 and the alternative hypothesis H1 . H0: H1: (b) Determine the type of test statistic to use.   ▼(Choose one)   (c) Find the value of the test statistic. (Round to three or more decimal places.)   (d) Find the p-value.

The proportion

p

of residents in a community who recycle has traditionally been

60%

. A policy maker claims that the proportion is less than

60%

now that one of the recycling centers has been relocated. If

126

out of a random sample of

215

residents in the community said they recycle, is there enough evidence to support the policy maker's claim at the

0.10

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.)
