Answer:

The​ P-value method and the classical method are not equivalent to the confidence interval method in that they may yield different results ( A )

Explanation:

The False statement about using the confidence interval method when testing a claim about μ when σ is​ unknown is ; The​ P-value method and the classical method are not equivalent to the confidence interval method in that they may yield different results

This is because sometimes the values gotten from the p-value and confidence interval differs and this occurs mostly when the sample size is very small.
