Question

Determine the appropriate conclusion at the significance level of 0.10. Choose the correct answer below. A. Do not reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the correlation is significant. B. Do not reject the null hypothesis. There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that the correlation is significant. C. Reject the null hypothesis. There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that the correlation is significant. D. Reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the correlation is significant.

Answer 1

Answer: D. Reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the correlation is significant.

Explanation:

According to the Oxford dictionary the null hypothesis "is a hypothesis that there is no significant difference between specified populations, any observed difference being due to sampling or experimental error."

Therefore if we are to observe our answer to a margin of 0.10, it means that values gotten should not be generalized because the margin for our conclusion is small.

Hence we need to ignore the null hypothesis when analysing the results
