Each student also identified which extracurricular activity (out of a total of 5 extra curricular activities) they were involved in. The calculated chi-square test statistic was 7.53 with a corresponding p-value of 0.4807. Based on this p-value, which of the following is the correct decision for the appropriate hypothesis test at the α=0.05 significance level? A) Reject the null hypothesis. The test is statistically significant because a p-value of 0.4807 is greater than a significance level of 0.05. B) Reject the null hypothesis. The test is statistically significant because a p-value of 0.4807 is less than the test statistic of 7.53. C) Fail to reject the null hypothesis. The test is not statistically significant because a p-value of 0.4807 is greater than a significance level of 0.05. D) Fail to reject the null hypothesis. The test is not statistically significant because a p-value of 0.4807 is less than the test statistic of 7.53. E) Accept the null hypothesis. The test is not statistically significant because a p-value of 0.4807 is greater than a significance level of 0.05.

Answer

Answer: C) Fail to reject the null hypothesis. The test is not statistically significant because a p-value of 0.4807 is greater than a significance level of 0.05.
Explanation: Since the p-value (0.4807) is greater than the significance level (0.05), the result is not statistically significant, and we fail to reject the null hypothesis.
