A decade-old study found that the proportion of high school seniors who felt that "getting rich" was an important personal goal was 66%.

Suppose that we have reason to believe that this proportion has changed, and we wish to carry out a hypothesis test to see if our belief can be supported.
--------------------------------
State the null hypothesis Ho and the alternative hypothesis H1 that we would use for this test.
----------------
Ho: p = 0.66
H1: p is not equal to 0.66
