    A) There is not sufficient evidence that the proportion is not 0.30.

    Explanation:

    When carrying out a statistical test, we always have two types of hypothesis which include null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis. The two hypotheses are opposite of each other, if one rejects one, he/she must accept the other. If the null hypothesis is accepted, it means that there is no statistical significance of the claim. In this case, the null hypothesis is accepted meaning that there is not sufficient evidence that the proportion is not 0.30. Hence, the correct answer is A
