The principal of a school would like to investigate whether more than 40% of the senior learners smoke. The study involved a random sample of 120 learners and 60 learners reported that they were smokers. Let: p= the population proportion of senior learners who smoke. p¯= the sample proportion of senior learners who smoke. (a) give the standard error of p¯ under the null Hypothesis (b) calculate the value of the test statistic (c) give the p-value
