According to a certain government agency for a large country, the proportion of fatal traffic accidents in the country in which the driver had a positive blood alcohol concentration (BAC) is 0.37. Suppose a random sample of 115 traffic fatalities in a certain region results in 56 that involved a positive BAC. Does the sample evidence suggest that the region has a higher proportion of traffic fatalities involving a positive BAC than the country at the a = 0.1 level of significance? Find the test statistic, zo. 20 = (Round to two decimal places as needed.)
