a. Clearly identify and state the null hypothesis H0 and the alternative hypothesis H1. b. Determine the critical value(s) and the value of the appropriate test statistic (to nearest 0.001). c. Do you reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis? Justify your answer.
Please show work:
During a recent election, a clerk was responsible for the placement of candidate’s names on election ballots for a particular voting precinct. Party A candidates were selected for the first position in 35 of 50 ballots. Because the clerk was supposed to use a method of random selection, Party B claimed that instead of using randomness, the clerk used a method favoring Party A. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the method favored Party A. [Note: Favored means a proportion greater than 50%.]
