Answer:

A: H0: p = 0.27; Ha: p > 0.27

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameter is the population proportion.

According to the survey conducted by the American Academy of Periodontology, the proportion of of US adults who admit they lie to their dentist about how often they floss their teeth is 27%.

This means the null hypothesis is :

H_0: p=0.27

Periodontist Dr. Garcia believes that the percentage seems low, so his claim is that the percentage should be more than 27%.

This means, the alternate hypothesis is

H_{a}:p \: > \: 0.27

Therefore the correct choice is A.

What is 7 2/10 as a decimal
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]
When changing fractions into decimals the whole number goes before the period and the fraction goes after.The denominator of the fraction will tell you whether or not you need to put any zeros before the numerator. If the denominator is 10 zeros are not needed.The end result is 7.2 and can be read as seven tenths.
