I'm not clear on how to do this. Please help.

Devin in Minneapolis is conducting a study to see if the accuracy rate for fingerprint identification is significantly different from 0.57.Devin obtains a relevant sample of size n=302 in which there are 159 people whose fingerprints are accurately identified.

Perform an appropriate hypothesis test to help Devin make a statistically correct conclusion about this scenario. Use a significance level of =0.001.

Perform a hypothesis test.

  • Clearly label and show all steps of the test.
  • Use only the standard normal table to calculate your probability. Show calculations for your test statistic.
  • Write your conclusion in a complete sentence, using the context of the problem.
  • If your sample fails the conditions make a note in your work and continue with your hypothesis test as though it did pass the conditions.
