Provide an Appropriate Response Is There Evidence at The $\alpha = 0.05$

Provide an appropriate response.
-The two flavors of ice cream in a taste test are supposed to be administered to respondents in a random fashion. Suspecting that the administrators of the test did not follow the randomness rule, the project statistician examines the flavor order for the day's taste testing, shown below.
$\begin{array} { l l l l l } \text { chocolate neopolitan } & \text { chocolate neopolitan } & \text { neopolitan } \\ \text { neopolitan } & \text { chocolate } & \text { neopolitan } & \text { chocolate } & \text { chocolate } \\ \text { neopolitan } & \text { chocolate } & \text { neopolitan chocolate } & \text { neopolitan } \\ \text { chocolate } & \text { neopolitan } & \text { chocolate neopolitan } & \text { chocolate } \end{array}$
Is there evidence at the $\alpha = 0.05$ level of significance to support the hypothesis that the flavor order is not random?

A) $r = 17$ ; lower critical value $= 6$ ; upper critical value $= 16$
Since $r \geq 16$ , we reject $\mathrm { H } _ { 0 }$ . There is sufficient evidence to support the hypothesis that the sequence is not random.
B) $r = 16$ ; lower critical value $= 7$ ; upper critical value $= 18$
Since $7 < \mathrm { r } < 18$ , we do not reject $\mathrm { H } _ { 0 }$ . There is not sufficient evidence to support the hypothesis that the sequence is not random.
C) $r = 18$ ; lower critical value $= 7$ ; upper critical value $= 18$
Since $r \geq 18$ , we reject $\mathrm { H } _ { 0 }$ . There is sufficient evidence to support the hypothesis that the sequence is not random.
D) $r = 15$ ; lower critical value $=$ 6; upper critical value $= 16$
Since $7 < \mathrm { r } < 18$ , we do not reject $\mathrm { H } _ { 0 }$ . There is not sufficient evidence to support the hypothesis that the sequence is not random.
