She wants to test Ho : p = 0.42 versus Ha : p < 0.42, were p is the proportion of adults in this nation who approve of the prime minister. Assuming that the conditions for inference have been met, identify the correct test statistic for Margot's significance test. 160 – 500 A 300(42)(58) 0.32 - 0.42 B 0.42(0.58) 500 0.32 – 0.42 0.32(0.68) 500 0.42 – 0.32 0.42(0.68) 500 0.42 – 0.32 E 0.32(0.68) 500 A large poll showed that 42% of adults approved of their nation's prime minister.
