A simple random sample of 1088 adults between the ages of 18 and 44 is conducted. It is found that 247 of the 1088 adults smoke. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that less than 1/4 of such adults smoke. Use P-value approach and determine conclusion.

Select one:

a. P-value = 0.960, fail to reject the null hypothesisb. P-value = 0.460, fail to reject the alternative hypothesisc. P-value = 0.080, reject the alternative hypothesisd. P-value = 0.227, fail to reject the null hypothesise. P-value = 0.040, reject the null hypothesis
