Option (B) a 95% confidence interval does not include the hypothesized value of the parameter
Step-by-step explanation:
Alpha, α = 0.05
We conduct a hypothesis test at 5% significance level.
The null hypothesis will be rejected when
Option (B) a 95% confidence interval does not include the hypothesized value of the parameter
When a 95% confidence interval is constructed,it contains all the possible values for the parameter being estimated.
If the value of the parameter stated in the null hypothesis is contained in the 95% confidence interval, then we fail to reject the null hypothesis 0.05 level and accept it.
If the value stated in the null hypothesis is not in the interval, then we fail to accept the null hypothesis and reject the null hypothesis at the 0.05 level.
