Question 484930: I am really struggling with this question & have to expres why it does or does not support the claim , if anyone can help me I appreciate it greatly!
In a recent poll, it was found that 43% of registered U.S. voters would vote for the incumbent president. If 100 registered voters were sampled randomly, it was found that 35% would vote of the incumbent. Test the claim that the actual proportion is 43%. Use = 0.01. (Round phat to 2 decimal places.)

phat = 0.35
Test the claim that the actual proportion is 43%. Use = 0.01. (Round phat to 2 decimal places.)
----
Ho: p = 0.43 (claim)
Ha: p is not equal to 0.43
------------------------
z(0.35) = (0.35-0.43)/sqrt[0.43*0.57/100] = -1.6159
----
p-value = 2*P(z < -1.6159) = 0.1061
====
Since the p-value is greater than 1%, fail to reject Ho
at the 1% level.
----
The test results support the claim.
