Do cash incentives improve learning? A high-school teacher in a low-income urban school in Worcester, Massachusetts, used cash incentives to encourage student learning in his AP Statistics class. In 2010, 15 of the 80 students enrolled in his class scored a 5 on the AP Statistics exam. Worldwide, the proportion of students who scored a 5 in 2010 was 0.15. Is this evidence that the proportion of students who would score a 5 on the AP Statistics exam when taught by the teacher in Worcester using cash incentives is higher than the worldwide proportion of 0.15?

Conduct a hypothesis test at the significance level α = 0.05 to determine if evidence is present regarding the use of cash incentives to motivate AP Statistics students to do better on their AP exams.
