The local newspaper conducted a study of welfare claims in the area.
It is reported that "more than 20% of the present welfare recipients
are ineligible and should not be receiving monthly payments." You are
hired by the welfare department to investigate the newspaper's claim.
To do this you randomly select 400 recipients from the files and
carefully investigate each one. You find that 100 should not be
receiving payments because they filed false claims, failed to report
that they work or committed other fraudulent acts. At the 0.01 level of
significance, should the newspapers claim be accepted
