A genetic experiment involving peas yielded one sample of offspring consisting of 426 green peas and 126 yellow peas. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that under the same circumstances, of offspring peas will be yellow. Identify the null hypothesis, altornative hypothosis, tost statistic, P -valuo, conctusion about the null hypothesis, and final conclusion that addresses the original claim. Use the P -value method and the normal distribution as an approximation to the binomial distribution.

What are the null and alternative hypotheses?

$$ \mathrm{H}_{0} : p = 0.27 $$  
$$ \mathrm{H}_{1} : p 
eq 0.27 $$

Thus, the correct answer is option E.
The null hypothesis is $$ H_{0}: p = 0.27 $$ and the alternative hypothesis is $$ H_{1}: p 
eq 0.27 $$.
