A consulting firm gathers information on consumer preferences around the world to help companies monitor attitudes about health, food, and healthcare products. They asked people in many different cultures how they felt about the statement "I have a strong preference for regional or traditional products and dishes from where I come from." In a random sample of 903 respondents, 311 of 747 people who live in urban environments agreed (either completely or somewhat) with that statement, compared to 98 out of 156 people who live in rural areas. Based on this sample, is there evidence that the percentage of people agreeing with the statement about regional preferences differs between all urban and rural dwellers? Write the appropriate hypotheses to conduct a hypothesis test. Let p 1
be the proportion of people living in urban environments that agree with the statement. Let p 2
be the proportion of people living in rural environments that agree with the statement. Choose the correct answer below. A. H 0
