Question: Kenneth, a competitor in cup stacking, claims that his average stacking time is8.2seconds. During a practice session, Kenneth has a sample stacking time mean of7.8seconds

Kenneth, a competitor in cup stacking, claims that his average stacking time is8.2seconds. During a practice session, Kenneth has a sample stacking time mean of7.8seconds based on11trials. At the4%significance level, does the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that Kenneth's mean stacking time is less than8.2seconds? Accept or reject the hypothesis given the sample data below.

H0:=8.2seconds;Ha:<8.2seconds

=0.04(significance level)

z0=1.75

p=0.0401

Select the correct answer below

a. Do not reject the null hypothesis because thep-value0.0401is greater than the significance level=0.04.

b. Reject the null hypothesis because thep-value0.0401is greater than the significance level=0.04.

c. Reject the null hypothesis because the value ofzis negative.

d. Reject the null hypothesis because|1.75|>0.04.

e. Do not reject the null hypothesis because|1.75|>0.04.
