  1. The p-value = (Please show your answer to 4 decimal places.)
  1. Based on this, we should Select an answer accept fail to reject reject  the null hypothesis.
  2. Thus, the final conclusion is that ...
    • A) The data suggest the populaton proportion is significantly different from 16% at αα = 0.01, so there is statistically significant evidence to conclude that the the percentage of all registered voters who will vote in the upcoming election will be different from 16%.
    • B) The data suggest the population proportion is not significantly different from 16% at αα= 0.01, so there is statistically insignificant evidence to conclude that the percentage of registered voters who will vote in the upcoming election will be different from 16%.
    • C) The data suggest the population proportion is not significantly different from 16% at αα= 0.01, so there is statistically significant evidence to conclude that the percentage of registered voters who will vote in the upcoming election will be equal to 16%.
