Q15MHypothesis TestsFree sample

At the 2009 election, 13\frac{1}{3} of the voters in Chington voted for the Citizens Party. One year later, a researcher questioned 20 randomly selected voters in Chington. Exactly 3 of these 20 voters said that if there were an election next week they would vote for the Citizens Party. Test at the 2.5% significance level whether there is evidence of a decrease in support for the Citizens Party in Chington, since the 2009 election.
