In a certain school district, it was observed that 25% of the students in the element schools were classified as only children (no siblings). However, in the special program for talented and gifted children, 66 out of 201 students are only children. The school district administrators want to know if the proportion of only children in the special program is significantly different from the proportion for the school district. Test at the a = 0.01 level of significance. What is the hypothesized population proportion for this test? p = (Report answer as a decimal accurate to 2 decimal places. Do not report using the percent symbol.) Based on the statement of this problem, how many tails would this hypothesis test have?
