A college professor claims the proportion of students that complete a homework assignment is 70%. To test this claim, a random sample of students are monitored and checked if they completed the home the algebra class.
Assume that the test statistic for this hypothesis test is −1.73.
Since this is a two tailed hypothesis test, assume that the critical values for this hypothesis test are −1.96 and 1.96.
