Question

100%

Historically, the proportion of students entering a university who finished in 4 years or less was 65%. To test whether this proportion has decreased, 150 students were examined and 58% had finished in 4 years or less. At the 5% level of significance, does it appear the proportion has decreased from its historical level? To determine whether the proportion of students who finish in 4 year or less has statistically significantly decreased, what is the null and alternative hypothesis?
