In order for a candy company to claim that a bridge mix is mostly chocolate stars, a proportion of at least 0.8 of the packages must contain 3 ounces or more of chocolate stars. Quality control tests a random sample of 50 packages to determine if the proportion is less than 0.8 at a significance level of 0.05.

p^=

z=

p=

Since the p-value is (great or less?) than the significance level 0.05, the null hypothesis (is reject or fails to be rejected?).

(Sufficient or insufficient?) evidence exists that the proportion of packages with 3 ounces or more of chocolate stars is less than 0.8.
