Answer: right-tailed

Explanation:

By considering the given information , we have

Null hypothesis :
H_0: p\leq0.6

Alternative hypothesis :
H_a: p>0.6

The kind of test (whether left-tailed, right-tailed, or​ two-tailed.) is based on alternative hypothesis.

Since the given alternative hypothesis(
H_a) is right-tailed , so out test is a right-tailed test.

Hence, the correct answer is "right-tailed".
