A powerful women's group has claimed that men and women differ in attitudes about sexual discrimination. A group of 50 men (group 1)and 40 women (group 2)were asked if they thought sexual discrimination is a problem in the United States. Of those sampled, 11 of the men and 19 of the women did believe that sexual discrimination is a problem. If the p-value turns out to be 0.035 (which is NOT the real value in this data set), then
A) at α = 0.05, you should fail to reject H₀.
B) at α = 0.04, you should reject H₀.
C) at α = 0.03, you should reject H₀.
D) None of the above would be correct statements.
