Set up appropriate hypotheses and determine whether african


African Americans in a St. Louis suburb sued the city claiming they were discriminated against in schoolteacher hiring. Of the city's population, 5.7% were African American; of 405 teachers in the school system, 15 were African American. Set up appropriate hypotheses and determine whether African Americans are underrepresented.
