For the following data, compute the test statistic and the critical value, and determine whether to reject $H _ { 0 }$ at the $\alpha = 0.10$ level.
$\begin{array} { l | l | l | l | l | l | l | l | l }
\text { Sample A } & 42 & 55 & 59 & 57 & 49 & 60 & 43 & 54 \
\hline \text { Sample B } & 28 & 44 & 42 & 64 & 61 & 46 & 39 & 63
\end{array}$
A) S=10 , Critical value is 6, Do not reject $H _ { 0 }$
B) S=10 , Critical value is 6, Reject $H _ { 0 }$
C) S=11 , Critical value is 4 , Do not reject $H _ { 0 }$
D) S=11 , Critical value is 4 , Reject $H _ { 0 }$

The test statistic is 10, and the critical value is 6. Since the test statistic is greater than the critical value, we reject the null hypothesis.
