    Null hypothesis, p = 56

    alternative hypothesis, p > 56

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Sample size (n) = 900

    Sample proportion = 60%

    P = 60%

    Hypothesized proportion = 56%

    p = 56%

    Null hypothesis:

    H0: p = 56

    This means that the percentage of residents who favor construction is equal to 56%.

    Alternative hypothesis:

    Ha: p > 56

    This means that the percentage of residents who favor construction is above 56%.
