Explanation / Answer

The statistical software output for this problem is:

One sample proportion summary hypothesis test:
p : Proportion of successes
H0 : p = 0.126
HA : p 0.126

Hypothesis test results:

Hence,

Test statistic = - 1.4954505

Positive critical value = 2.576

Negative critical value = - 2.576

Conclusion: Option A is correct.

Proportion Count Total Sample Prop. Std. Err. Z-Stat P-value p 266 2300 0.11565217 0.0069195376 -1.4954505 0.1348
