A political campaign is interested in whether a geographic difference existed in support for raising the minimum wage in a certain state. Polls were conducted in the two largest cities in the state about raising the minimum wage. In city 1, a poll of 800 randomly selected voters found that 504 supported raising the minimum wage. In city 2, a poll of 1000 randomly selected voters found that 627 supported raising the minimum wage. What type of hypothesis test should be performed? _______ select (left-tailed z-test, two-tailed z-test, left-tailed t-test, right-tailed t-test) p^1= (Ex: 0.123) p^2= (Ex: 0.123) p^= Test statistic = (Ex: 0.12 p-value = (Ex: 0.12) Does sufficient evidence exist to support the claim that the level of support differs between the two cities at the α=0.1 significance level?______ select (no or yes)
