Answer:

z=\frac{0.40 -0.45}{\sqrt{\frac{0.45(1-0.45)}{370}}}=-1.933  

p_v =2*P(z  

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

n=370 represent the sample selected

\hat p=0.4 estimated proportion of  readers owned a laptop

p_o=0.45 is the value that we want to test

z would represent the statistic

p_v represent the p value

Creating the hypothesis

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test if the true proportion of readers owned a laptop is different from 0.45, the system of hypothesis are:  

Null hypothesis:p=0.45  

Alternative hypothesis:p \neq 0.45  

The statistic is:

z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}} (1)  

Replacing we got:

z=\frac{0.40 -0.45}{\sqrt{\frac{0.45(1-0.45)}{370}}}=-1.933  

Calculating the p value  

We have a bilateral test so then the p value would be:

p_v =2*P(z

The answer is 5b²/6c

Ok so you just have to simplify
15/18 = 5/6 (cause 3*5=15 and 3*6=18)

Then you do as the picture above says.
