Question

You are asked to conduct a simulation and run a hypothesis test at a significance level of 0.10. Based on your simulation, you find that the p-value is 0.051. What does this mean for your hypothesis test?

1.	Since the p-value is greater than the significance level, you must fail to reject the null hypothesis.
2.	Since the p-value is less than the significance level, you must fail to reject the null hypothesis.
3.	Since the p-value is less than the significance level, you must reject the null hypothesis.
4.	Since the p-value is greater than the significance level, you must reject the null hypothesis.

Answer 1

solution

Given That

P- Value = 0.051

= 0.10

P-value <

Reject the null hypothesis .

Option ( 3) is correct

Since the p-value is less than the significance level, you must reject the null hypothesis.
