Consider a sample of 50   football​ games, where 28   of them were won by the home team. Use a 0.10   significance level to test the claim that the probability that the home team wins is greater than​ one-half. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses for this test. Choose the correct answer below.     A. Upper H 0 ​: pequals 0.5 Upper H 1 ​: pless than 0.5     B. Upper H 0 ​: pgreater than 0.5 Upper H 1 ​: pequals 0.5     C. Upper H 0 ​: pequals 0.5 Upper H 1 ​: pnot equals 0.5     D. Upper H 0 ​: pequals 0.5 Upper H 1 ​: pgreater than 0.5 Your answer is correct. Identify the test statistic for this hypothesis test.   The test statistic for this hypothesis test is 1.98 . ​(Round to two decimal places as​ needed.)
