Question 398141: After performing the test discussed in question #2 above, the p-value calculated to .062. Would you accept or reject the null based on this information? Explain your answer

Note: Here is question 2:
As the research, you believe that Sample A has a lower mean than Sample B and you are going to perform a t-test to determine if this is true at a 95% confidence level. State the numeric null and alternative hypothesis.

1 - 0.95 = 0.05 < 0.062, so do NOT reject the null hypothesis. Or, Sample A does not have a lower mean than Sample B.
From Question 2,
H%5B0%5D : u%5BA%5D+%3E=+u%5BB%5D
H%5Ba%5D : u%5BA%5D+%3C+u%5BB%5D
