3. If a newborn baby has a birth weight that is less than 2500 grams (5.5 pounds), we say that the baby has a low birth weight. The proportion of babies with a low birth weight is an indicator of lack of nutrition for the mothers. For the United States, approximately 7% of babies have a low birth weight. Let p equal the proportion of babies born in Sudan who weigh less than 2500 grams. We shall test the null hypothesis Ho : p = 0.07 against the alternative hypothesis H1 : p > 0.07. In a random sample of n = 209 babies, y = 23 weighed less than 2500 grams. (a) What is your conclusion at a significance level o = 0.05? (b) What is your conclusion at a significance level o = 0.01? (c) Find the p-value for this test
