Here's the Solution to this Question

H_0:p=p_0=0.2

H_1:p\not=0.2

Test statistics

T={\frac {{\frac m n}-p_0} {p_0*(1-p_0)}}*\sqrt{n} , where m - number of satisfiyung observations, n - sample size

In the given case we have

T={\frac {{\frac {45} {250}}-0.2} {0.2*0.8}}*\sqrt{250}\approx -1.98

Since the sample size is big(>30), then it is appropriate to use z-score as critical value C, so, since we run two-tailed test

P(Z>C)={\frac {0.01} 2}=0.005\implies C=2.58

Since T\in(-2.58,2.58) , then we should accept the null hypothesis and conclude that, based on the data, there is no statisticsal evidence at \alpha=0.01 to conclude that p\not=0.2
