In a study of red/green color blindness, 550 men and 2400 women are randomly selected and tested. Among the men, 52 have red/green color blindness. Among the women, 6 have red/green color blindness. Test the claim that men have a higher rate of red/green color blindness.

(Note: Type ''p_m for the symbol p m, for example p_mnot=p_w, for the proportions are not equal, p_m>p_w, for the proportion of men with color blindness is larger, p_m<p_w, for the proportion of men is smaller. )

(a) State the null hypothesis:

(b) State the alternative hypothesis:

Note that computation of the test statistic will produce z = 14.02
