Answer:

Reject H₀: If p-value < α = 0.05.

Fail to reject H₀: If p-value > α = 0.05.

Explanation:

The p-value is well-defined as the probability, [under the null hypothesis (H₀)], of attaining a result equivalent to or more extreme than what was truly observed.

We reject the null hypothesis if the p-value of a test statistic is lower than the level of significance α.

A small p-value (typically ≤ 0.05) specifies consistent proof against the null hypothesis (H₀), so you discard H₀.

A large p-value (typically > 0.05) specifies fragile proof against the H₀, so you fail to discard H₀.

In this case the significance level of the test is α = 0.05.

If the p-value of the test is less than 0.05 significance level then the null hypothesis will be rejected.

And if the p-value of the test is more than 0.05 significance level then the null hypothesis will be failed to be rejected.
