A)Reject H₀ in favor of H₁ B)Accept H₀ in favor of H₁ C)Fail to reject H₀ in favor of H₁ D)We cannot tell what our decision will be from the information given

Since the value μ = 15 is not within the 95% confidence interval (8,13), we reject the null hypothesis H0: μ = 15 in favor of the alternative hypothesis H1: μ ≠ 15 at the α = 0.05 significance level.
