Math Problem Statement
- A principal claims that 70% of Advanced students in mathematics are male. Teacher X would like to investigate if this is true. She randomly selected 22 students and found out that 12 of them are males. Run a binomial test to determine if there is enough evidence to suggest that the proportion of male Advanced students is not the same to what the principal claim. Use alpha = 0.05
