The researcher wants to test whether the mean weight of all high school students in the state (u) would be 70 kg or not.
So, the null and the alternative hypotheses for the test the researcher wants to conduct are:
A
A. The researcher's null hypothesis is Ho: μ = 70 and the alternative hypothesis is Hд: μ#70.
B. The researcher's null hypothesis is Ho: μ≥70 and the alternative hypothesis is Hä: µ‡70.
○ C. The researcher's null hypothesis is Ho: µ = 70 and the alternative hypothesis is Hд: μ≥70.
D. The researcher's null hypothesis is Ho: μ ≥ 70 and the alternative hypothesis is Hд: μ≤70.
For a prespecified 5% significance level, the p-value of the test the researcher wants to conduct is
(Round your answer to four decimal places.)
The calculated p-value suggests that we will
