he proportion p of residents in a community who recycle has traditionally been 60%. A policy maker claims that the proportion is less than 60% now that one of the recycling centers has been relocated. If 116 out of a random sample of 225 residents in the community said they recycle, is there enough evidence to support the policy maker's claim at the 0.01 level of significance? Perform a one-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places. A. State the null hypothesis Ho and the alternative hypothesis H1 Ho: H1: B. Find the value of the test statistic. (Round to three or more decimal places.) C. Find the critical value. (Round to three or more decimal places.) D. Is there enough evidence to support the policy maker's claim that the proportion of residents who recycle is less than 60%? (Yes or no) .
