A Researcher Selected a Sample of 50 Residents from Each $= .05$

A researcher selected a sample of 50 residents from each of three different cities to determine if citizens were willing to participate in a medical experiment. At $= .05$ , test the claim that the proportions who will participate are equal.
$\begin{array}{|l|c|c|c|}\hline \text { Residents } & \text { City 1 } & \text { City 2 } & \text { City 3 } \\\hline \text { Willing to participate } & 20 & 12 & 26 \\\hline \text { Not willing to } & 30 & 38 & 24 \\\hline \text { participate } & & & \\\hline \text { Total } & 50 & 50 & 50 \\\hline\end{array}$

A) There is not evidence to reject the claim that the proportions are equal because the test value $12.592 >$ $1.237$
B) There is not evidence to reject the claim that the proportions are equal because the test value $8.321 >$ $5.991$
C) There is not evidence to reject the claim that the proportions are equal because the test value $1.237 <$ $5.99$
D) There is evidence to reject the claim that the proportions are equal because the test value $8.321 > 5.991$
