Any basketball fan knows that Shaquille O’Neal, one of the NBA’s most dominant centers of the last twenty years, always had difficulty shooting free throws. Over the course of his career, his overall made free-throw percentage was 53.3%. During one off-season, Shaq had been working with an assistant coach on his free-throw technique. During the next season, a simple random sample showed that Shaq made 26 of 39 free-throw attempts. Test the claim that Shaq has significantly improved his free-throw shooting using a 0.05 significance level. What's the Null and Alternate?
