An organization published an article stating that in any one-year period, approximately 11.5 percent of adults in a country suffer from depression or a depressive illness. Suppose that in a survey of 100 people in a certain town, nine of them suffered from depression or a depressive illness. Conduct a hypothesis test to determine if the true proportion of people in that town suffering from depression or a depressive illness is lower than the percent in the general adult population in the country. What symbol represents the random variable for this test? In words, define the random variable for this test. Calculate the following : X= , N= , P= .
