A television news story claimed that half of all U.S. adults have health issues. In a national poll about health issues (CDC Project), 12,638 U.S. adults were surveyed and it was found that 6413 of those surveyed had health issues. At a 5% level of significance, perform a hypothesis test to test the claim made by the television news story. What is the correct conclusion? Please explain how you derived your answer
