A random sample of 25 college males was obtained and each was asked to report their actual height and what they wished as their ideal height. A 95% confidence interval for _µ_d = average difference between their ideal and actual heights was 0.8" to 2.2". Based on this interval, which one of the null hypotheses below (versus a two-sided alternative) can be rejected? Select one: a. H0: µd = 2.0 b. H0: µd = 1.0 c. H0: µd = 1.5 d. H0: µd = 0.5
