Answer:
Option a) Rejected
Step-by-step explanation:
We define critical region as:
- It is also known as the rejection region.
- It is the region where the null hypothesis is rejected.
- Thus, if our calculated test statistic lies in the critical region, we fail to accept the null hypothesis and reject it.
- For right tailed test: The critical region is the values greater than the critical value.
- For left tailed test: The critical region is the values less than the critical value.
- The critical region for two tailed test is the value apart from the range of critical values.
Thus,
If a test statistic falls in the critical region the null hypothesis is rejected.
