Question
### Hypothesis Testing at Significance Level \( \alpha = 0.02 \)

#### Statement of the Hypothesis
You wish to test the following claim \( (H_a) \) at a significance level of \( \alpha = 0.02 \):

- \( H_0 \): \( p_1 = p_2 \)
- \( H_a \): \( p_1 < p_2 \)

#### Sample Information
You obtain a random sample of size 476 from the first population, with 344 successes. You obtain a random sample of size 398 from the second population, with 331 successes.

#### Determining Test Statistic
What is the test statistic for this sample? (Report answer accurate to 2 decimal places.)

\[ \text{test statistic =} \quad \underline{\hspace{5cm}} \]

#### Determining P-value
What is the p-value for this sample? (Report answer accurate to 3 decimal places.)

\[ \text{p-value =} \quad \underline{\hspace{5cm}} \]

#### Evaluating P-value
The p-value is...

- \( \circ \) less than \( \alpha \)
- \( \circ \) greater than \( \alpha \)

#### Making the Decision
This test statistic leads to a decision to...

- \( \circ \) reject the null
- \( \circ \) accept the null
- \( \circ \) fail to reject the null

#### Final Conclusion
As such, the final conclusion is that...

- \( \circ \) Because our p-value is less than alpha, we fail to reject the \( H_0 \). There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the first population proportion is less than the second population proportion.
  
- \( \circ \) Because our p-value is greater than alpha, we reject the \( H_0 \). There is enough evidence to support the claim that the first population proportion is less than the second population proportion.
  
- \( \circ \) Because our p-value is less than alpha, we reject the \( H_0 \). There is enough evidence to support the claim that the first population proportion is less than the second population proportion.
  
- \( \circ \) Because our p-value is greater than alpha, we fail to reject the \( H_0 \). There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the first population proportion is less
