An environmental science teacher at a high school with a large population of students was curious whether the majority (more than half) of students at the school regularly recycle plastic bottles. The teacher selected a random sample of 146 students at the school to interview, then asked each student: "Do you recycle plastic bottles more often than you throw them in the trash?" (Yes/No) . Suppose that 89 of the students answered "Yes".
-Would you consider the results of this test to be statistically significant?
A) Yes, because the simulated distribution is not centered on the observed statistic.
B) No, because the results are unlikely to occur by random chance alone.
C) No, because the simulation proves that the null hypothesis is true.
D) Yes, because the results are unlikely to occur by random chance alone.
