Question 696175: A test if Ho: μ=60 versus Ha: μ ≠ 60 produces a sample mean of x =58 and a P-value of 0.04. At a level of significance α = 0.05, which of the following is an appropriate conclusion?
1. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that μ < 60.
2. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that μ = 60.
3. There is insufficient evidence to conclude that μ = 60.
4. There is insufficient evidence to conclude that μ ≠ 60.
5. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that μ ≠ 60.

----
Since the p-value is less than alpha, reject Ho.
Ans: # 3
