In a recent study of a random sample of 113 people, 92 reported dreaming in color. In the 1940’s, the proportion of people who reported dreaming in color was 29%. Is there evidence to show that the proportion of people who dream in color is different than the proportion in the 1940’s? What is the decision for this hypothesis test?   A) Fail to reject Ho because the test statistic is in the rejection region and the p-value is greater than alpha. B)Fail to reject Ho because the test statistic is not in the rejection region and the p-value is greater than alpha. C) Reject Ho because the test statistic is in the critical region and the p-value is less than alpha. D) Fail to reject Ho because the test statistic is in the critical region and the p-value is less than alpha. E) Reject Ho because the test statistic is in the rejection region and the p-value is greater than alpha.
