You select a random sample of 200 tickets from a large order of tickets recently delivered by the ticket supplier and find that 28 of the tickets are winners. Set up a two tailed hypothesis test to determine whether this is sufficient sample evidence to reject the supplier’s claim that, overall, the order contains 10% winners. Use a significance level of 1%.
