Question

In a two-tailed hypothesis test of the mean using a 0.05 level of significance, researchers calculated a p-value of 0.03. What conclusion can be drawn? The alternative hypothesis should be rejected because the p-value is so small. The null hypothesis is true because the p-value is less than the level of significance. The alternative hypothesis is 3% likely to be true. The null hypothesis should be rejected because the p-value is less than the level of significance.
