Answer:

H0: p ≤.25 Ha: p >.25

Step-by-step explanation:

One choice is missing. Correct choices are:

a. H0: p > 25 Ha: p ≤ 25

b. H0: p ≥ .25 Ha: p <.25

c. H0: p <.25 Ha: p ≥ .25

d. H0: p ≤.25 Ha: p >.25

Town officials are interested in determining whether the promotional campaign actually increased the proportion of voters.

Null hypothesis should assume that the promotional campaign didn't increase the proportion of voters. That is H0: p ≤.25

And alternative hypothesis should assume that the promotional campaign actually increased the proportion of voters. That is Ha: p >.25

If the sample proportion is found significant under null hypothesis at a specified significance level, then null hypothesis can be rejected and can be concluded that there is significant evidence that the promotional campaign actually increased the proportion of voters.
