Answer:

the most conservative hypothesis is

<em>H₀</em>: <em>p</em> = 0.18, <em>Hₐ</em>: <em>p</em> > 0.18.

Step-by-step explanation:

The researcher wants to test whether the rate of smoking among adults in Chicago is greater than the national rate of 18% or not.

The hypothesis for this test can be defined as follows:

Null Hypothesis (H_{o}): The rate of smoking among adults in Chicago is same as the national rate, i.e. <em>p</em> = 0.18.

Alternate Hypothesis (H_{a}): The rate of smoking among adults in Chicago is greater than the national rate, i.e. <em>p</em> > 0.18.

So the most conservative hypothesis is <em>H₀</em>: <em>p</em> = 0.18, <em>Hₐ</em>: <em>p</em> > 0.18.
