400 people are asked a question in a poll and 80 said yes.
-------
sample proportion = p-hat = 80/400 = 1/5
test statistic = ((1/5)-p)/sqrt[p*q/n] = ?
-------
What is the P-value?
The p-value is the probability that z is less than (or greater than)
the test statistic. You don't have enough information to calculate
a p-value
