Question

Test Hypotheses about a Population Mean with Known Using P-values
-Given $\mathrm { H } _ { 0 } : \mu \geq 18 , \mathrm { H } _ { 1 } : \mu < 18$, and $\mathrm { P } = 0.070$. Do you reject or fail to reject $\mathrm { H } _ { 0 }$ at the $0.05$ level of significance?
A) fail to reject $\mathrm { H } _ { 0 }$
B) reject $\mathrm { H } _ { 0 }$
C) not sufficient information to decide

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Since the p-value (0.070) is greater than the significance level (0.05), we fail to reject the null hypothesis $\mathrm { H } _ { 0 }$.
