Among college students, the proportion
p
who say they’re interested in their congressional district’s election results has traditionally been
65%
. After a series of debates on campuses, a political scientist claims that the proportion of college students who say they’re interested in their district’s election results is more than
65%
. A poll is commissioned, and
194
out of a random sample of
270
college students say they’re interested in their district’s election results. Is there enough evidence to support the political scientist's claim at the
0.05
level of significance?

Perform a one-tailed test. Then complete the parts below.

Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.)
