Assume that 34.3​% of people have sleepwalked. Assume that in a random sample of 1541 ​adults, 572 have sleepwalked.

a. Assuming that the rate of 34.3​% is​ correct, find the probability that 572 or more of the 1541 adults have sleepwalked.
b. Is that result of 572 or more significantly​ high?
c. What does the result suggest about the rate of 34.3​%?
a. Assuming that the rate of 34.3​% is​ correct, the probability that 572 or more of the 1541 adults have sleepwalked is
nothing.
​(Round to four decimal places as​ needed.)
b. Is that result of 572 or more significantly​ high?

No,
Yes,
because the probability of this event is

greater
less
than the probability cutoff that corresponds to a significant​ event, which is

0.5.
0.05.
0.95.
c. What does the result suggest about the rate of 34.3​%?
A.
The results do not indicate anything about the​ scientist's assumption.
B.
Since the result of 572 adults that have sleepwalked is not significantly​ high, it is not strong evidence against the assumed rate of 34.3​%.
C.
Since the result of 572 adults that have sleepwalked is significantly​ high, it is strong evidence against the assumed rate of 34.3​%.
D.
Since the result of 572 adults that have sleepwalked is significantly​ high, it is strong evidence supporting the assumed rate of 34.3​%.
E.
Since the result of 572 adults that have sleepwalked is significantly​ high, it is not strong evidence against the assumed rate of 34.3​%.
F.
Since the result of 572 adults that have sleepwalked is not significantly​ high, it is strong evidence against the assumed rate of 34.3​%.
