In a program designed to help patients stop smoking,

198198

patients were given sustained care, and

82.882.8%

of them were no longer smoking after one month. Use a

0.010.01

significance level to test the claim that

8181%

of patients stop smoking when given sustained care. Use the P-value method. Use the normal distribution as an approximation to the binomial distribution.
