A nutritionist believes that obesity is more prevalent among American adults than it was in the past. He discovers that in a study conducted in the year 1994, 380 of the 1630 randomly chosen adults were classified as obese. However, in a more recent study, he finds 726 out of 2350 randomly chosen adults were classified as obese. At α = 0.05, do these studies provide evidence to support the nutritionist's claim that the proportion of obese adults has significantly increased since 1994?
