You can put this solution on YOUR website!
you need the confidence level, say 95%
:
with a confidence level of 95%, we have a significance level of 5% or 0.05
:
a p-value less than the significance level(i.e. 0.05), requires us to reject the null hypothesis
:
from your statement of the problem, it is not clear whether 0.0000404 is the p-value or the critical value for the comparison of the sample means
