She collects a random sample from each population and records theproportion of test subjects that reported that they had eaten at least 3 meals per weektogether as a family. The data is summarized in the table below. Assume the all conditionsfor proceeding with a two-sample test have been met.  Rural  Urban n1=75n2=140x1=12x2=40\begin{array} { | l | l | } \hline \text { Rural } & \text { Urban } \\ \hline n _ { 1 } = 75 & n _ { 2 } = 140 \\ \hline x _ { 1 } = 12 & x _ { 2 } = 40 \\ \hline \end{array} Find the z test statistic (rounded to the nearest hundredth) and p-value (rounded to the nearest thousandth) for testing the hypothesis that the population proportions are different. At the 5% significance level, state the correct conclusion regarding the null hypothesis H0: prural =purban\mathrm { H } _ { 0 } : \text { prural } = \mathrm { p } _ { u r b a n } . Round all calculations to the nearest hundredth.
