A statistician read that at least 77% of the population oppose replacing $1 bills with $1 coins. To see if this claim is valid the statistician selected a sample of 80 people and found that 55 were opposed to replacing the $1 bills. At a significance level of 0.01, test the claim that at least 77% of the population are opposed to the change.

Ho= p=.77 (p>or=.77) claim Ha= p < .77 # success= 55 # observed=80 p=.6875 zstat=-1.753 p=.0398 a= .01 CV= p(x<or = _______) = .01 stat calc normal plug in =-2.326 is test more extreme than CV? no is pvalue less than .01? no fail to reject Ho there is not sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that at least 77% of pop are opposed to replacing $1 bills with $1 coins
