assume a significance level of $ \alpha = 0.1 $ and use the given information to complete parts (a) and (b) below. original claim: the mean pulse rate (in beats per minute) of a certain group of adult males is 73 bpm. the hypothesis test results in a p - value of 0.0073. a. state a conclusion about the null hypothesis. (reject $ h _ { 0 } $ or fail to reject $ h _ { 0 } $.) choose the correct answer below. $ \bigcirc $ a. fail to reject $ h _ { 0 } $ because the p - value is less than or equal to $ \alpha $. $ \bigcirc $ b. reject $ h _ { 0 } $ because the p - value is greater than $ \alpha $. $ \bigcirc $ c. fail to reject $ h _ { 0 } $ because the p - value is greater than $ \alpha $. $ \bigcirc $ d. reject $ h _ { 0 } $ because the p - value is less than or equal to $ \alpha $.

Question

Accepted Answer

# Explanation:
## Step1: Recall the decision rule for hypothesis testing
If $P - value\leq\alpha$, we reject the null hypothesis $H_0$. If $P - value>\alpha$, we fail to reject the null hypothesis $H_0$. Here, $\alpha = 0.1$ and $P - value=0.0073$.
## Step2: Compare the P - value and $\alpha$
Since $0.0073<0.1$ (i.e., $P - value\leq\alpha$)

# Answer:
D. Reject $H_0$ because the P - value is less than or equal to $\alpha$
