Kenneth, a competitor in cup stacking, claims that his average stacking time is 8.2 seconds. During a practice session, Kenneth has a sample stacking time mean of 7.8 seconds based on 11 trials. At the 4% significance level, does the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that Kenneth's mean stacking time is less than 8.2 seconds? Accept or reject the hypothesis given the sample data below. H0:μ=8.2 seconds; Ha:μ0.04. Do not reject the null hypothesis because |-1.75|>0.04.

    The data does not provide sufficient evidence to conclude that Kenneth's mean stacking time is less than 8.2 seconds.

    Do not reject the null hypothesis because the p-value 0.0401 is greater than the significance level.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Null hypothesis (H0) : mu = 8.2 seconds

    Alternate hypothesis (Ha) : mu < 8.2 seconds

    Significance level = 0.04

    p-value = 0.0401

    Using the p-value approach for testing hypothesis, do not reject H0 because the p-value 0.0401 is greater than the significance level 0.04.

    There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that Kenneth's mean stacking time is less than 8.2 seconds.
