ANSWER:
There is enough evidence to reject the humane society claims
STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:
Given:
p = 0.3
q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.3 = 0.7
n = 210
x = 80
Therefore:
[tex]\hat{p}=\frac{x}{n}=\frac{80}{210}=0.381[/tex]The critical values are:
[tex]Z_0=\pm1.96\text{ due }\alpha=0.05[/tex]The test statistic is:
[tex]\begin{gathered} Z=\frac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt[]{\frac{pq}{n}}} \\ \text{ replacing:} \\ Z=\frac{0.381-0.3}{\sqrt{\frac{0.3\cdot0.7}{210}}} \\ Z=2.56 \end{gathered}[/tex]Observe that
Z < 1.96
Therefore, reject the null hypothesis
There is enough evidence to reject the humane society claims
