 Is the hypothesis above a one-tail or a two-tail hypothesis?

11. F. N. David used a modern sheep astragalus to estimate the chances of its landing on each of
the four sides and provided us with the frequencies that we considered for the "fair" astragalus4.
יי
You attempt to check that the frequency of getting a "1" that we used for a "fair" astragalus is
יל
accurate by conducting an experiment of your own. Your experiment consists of throwing a goat
astragalus 1,000 times. Out of your sample of 1,000 throws of the goat astragalus, 89 times it
landed on "1".
Write the null and the alternative hypothesis that the population proportion of "1"s obtained
from throwing a goat astragalus is the same as the number obtained by F. N. David using a sheep
astragalus (i.e. the probability we used for a "fair" astragalus up to now).
