Answer: [tex]H_0:p\leq0.25[/tex]

[tex]H_a:p>0.25[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : In the past , 25% of the town residents participated in the school board elections.

Let 'p' be the proportion of voters will participated in the school board elections.

Claim : [tex]p>0.25[/tex]

We know that the null hypothesis has equal sign.

Therefore , the null hypothesis for the given situation will be opposite to the given claim will be :-

[tex]H_0:p\leq0.25[/tex]

And the alternative hypothesis must be :-

[tex]H_a:p>0.25[/tex]

Hence, the correct set of hypotheses is

[tex]H_0:p\leq0.25[/tex]

[tex]H_a:p>0.25[/tex]
