Answer: -6/7

Step-by-step explanation: 5 - 6x = 8x + 17

5 + - 6x = 8x + 17

-6x + 5 = 8x + 17

-6x + 5 - 8x = 8x + 17 - 8x

-14x + 5 = 17

-14x + 5 - 5 = 17 - 5

-14x = 12

-14x/-14 = 12/-14

x = -6/7

If an experimenter conducts a t test for independent means and rejects the null hypothesis, the correct interpretation is that:

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation:

Rejecting the null hypothesis means we've found a significant difference in the means. That means the probability that we'd see means so far apart by chance is less than our threshold of significance.
