A research center claims that at least 27% of U.S. adults think that the IRS will audit their taxes. In a random sample of 1000 U.S. adults in a recent year, 23% say they are concerned that the IRS will audit their taxes. At α = 0.01, is there enough evidence to reject the center’s claim?

(a) Identify the claim and state H₀ and H_a, 

(b) Find the critical value(s) and identify the rejection region(s), 

(c) Find the standardized test statistic z, 

(d) Decide whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis, and 

(e) Interpret the decision in the context of the original claim.
