Fishing question

Assume the condition of Normality is met for the problem below. I also want to know the following elements: (Please do not use the Student t test, nor a Chi-square test) Two-tailed test ok?

1. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's report on the bass population of North American lakes indicated average weight of fish to be 3.0 lb. and a standard deviation of .30 lb. Furthermore, 50% of all bass were females.

The State of Florida conducted an independent study and reported the average weight of their bass was 3.2 lb. Additionally, the report indicated that 58% of the bass were females.

(This report was based on a small sample of 121)

Test the hypothesis that Florida's bass female proportion differs from the national proportion. Use a=.05 to state your conclusion.
