An administrator at a local high school wanted to investigate whether there is an association between the amount of time a student studies for a test and the type of extracurricular activity the student is involved in. Three hundred students selected at random were asked how long they had studied for the last math test and how many extracurricular activities they are involved in.

Answer:

The answer is "When you don't deny the null hypothesis, you'll lose. Since a p-value of 0.4807 is higher than a level of significance of 0.05, the test also isn't statistically important".

Explanation:

The state of the hypotheses values

Null hypothesis:


H_0:There is still no connection between how the time a student invests studying for the test and what kind of endurance sport he or she participates in.

Null hypothesis:


H_l : There is indeed a connection between how the time a student invests studying for a test and the type of endurance sport in that he or she participates.

Law of Rejection:

Null hypothesis value is rejects, when the P-value is less than or equal to 0.05. P-value is 0.4807, which is greater than 0.05, based on the information provided.
