t includes data from 500 random tornadoes. The display from technology available below results from using the tornado lengths (miles) to test the claim that the mean tornado length is greater than 2.7 miles. Use a 0.05 significance level. Use the display to identify the null and alternative hypotheses, test statistic, and P-value. State the final conclusion that addresses the original claim.

Question

A data set includes data from 500 random tornadoes. The display from technology available below results from using the tornado lengths (miles) to test the claim that the mean tornado length is greater than 2.7 miles. Use a 0.05 significance level. Use the display to identify the null and alternative hypotheses, test statistic, and P-value.

State the final conclusion that addresses the original claim.

A.
Reject Ho. There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean tornado length is greater than 2.7 miles.
В.
Fail to reject Ho. There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean tornado length is greater than 2.7 miles.
CC Fail to reject Ho. There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean tornado length is greater than 2.7 miles
D.
Reject Ho. There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean tornado length is greater than 2.7 miles.
Transcribed Image Text:A. Reject Ho. There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean tornado length is greater than 2.7 miles. В. Fail to reject Ho.
