Tamil Nadu is one of the 29 states in India, which is also one of the leaders in literacy initiatives carried out in India. The literacy rate for Tamil Nadu is 0.809 as per 2011 census data. A NGO wants to determine if the actual literacy rate is more than the value reported in the census data.
A normal distribution is used to carry out the following hypothesis test:
H0:p=H0:p= 0.809 vs HA:p>HA:p> 0.809.
The test statistic for this hypothesis test is 2.8579. Find the p-value. Give your answer to 4 decimal places.
