A health insurance company wants to determine if more than 25% of US residents have been to a hospital emergency room within the past year. It was found that in a sample of 1000 people, 28% indicated that they had been to an emergency room within the past year. With a significance level of 0.01, is there evidence to suggest that the proportion of US residents that have been to the emergency room in the past year is actually higher than 25%?
