A health foods shop owner is wondering if his customers' daily vitamin supplement habits are in the same proportion as the general population of adults. The shop owner heard in a news report that 60% of all adults reported that they took a daily vitamin. The shop owner believes that his customers have a greater proportion of adults who take a daily vitamin, so he decides to conduct a hypothesis test using the following null and alternative hypotheses: Ho: p = 0.6 and H4: p > 0.6. The shop owner collected data from 50 randomly selected customers and recorded that 45 of them use daily vitamin supplements. (a) Compute the appropriate test statistic and find the p-value of the test and based on a 5% significance level. Write a conclusion about the null hypothesis by interpreting the p-value. Be sure to clearly state the decision regarding the null hypothesis.
