Question 4
Suppose that, for some hypothesis test, a=0.05 and the P-value is computed to be 0.754.
What is the appropriate conclusion?
Reject the null hypothesis at a significance level of 0.05.
It is not possible to make a conclusion based on the information provided.
Fail to reject the null hypothesis at a significance level of 0.05.
Accept the HO as the "P is low."
Further testing is required before it can be determined if we should reject or fail to reject the null
hypothesis at a significance level of 0.754.
