In a certain school district, it was observed that 26% of the students in the element schools were classified as only children (no siblings). However, in the special program for talented and gifted children, 132 out of 416 students are only children. The school district administrators want to know if the proportion of only children in the special program is significantly different from the proportion for the school district. Test at the α=0.02α=0.02 level of significance. What is the hypothesized population proportion for this test? p= Using the normal approximation for the binomial distribution (without the continuity correction), was is the test statistic for this sample based on the sample proportion? z= You are now ready to calculate the P-value for this sample. P-value =
