In a random sample of n1 = 156 male Statistics students, there are x1 = 81 underclassmen. In a random sample of n2 = 320 female Statistics students, there are x2 = 221 underclassmen. The researcher would like to test the hypothesis that the percent of males who are underclassmen stats students is less than the percent of females who are underclassmen stats students.  

What is the value of the test statistic?

What is the p-value for the test of hypothesis?

Given a level of significance of =0.05, what is the critical value for the test of hypothesis?

Given a level of significance of  =0.05, what is the correct conclusion? Reject or fail to reject?
