Census data for a certain county shows that 19% of the adult residents are Hispanic. Suppose 72 people are called for jury duty, and only 9 of them are Hispanic. Would this provide evidence that Hispanics are being underrepresented in the county's jury selection process at the 1% significance level?

Would the decision in the previous problem be the same if it had used a 5% significance level? What about 10%? Explain.
