---

Because \( np_0(1 - p_0) = 55.3 \) is greater than 10, the sample size is less than 5% of the population size, and the sample is given to be random, the requirements for testing the hypothesis are satisfied.

What are the null and alternative hypotheses?

\( H_0: p = 0.36 \) versus \( H_1: p \neq 0.36 \) 

(Type integers or decimals. Do not round.)
