A student wants to compare the mean times needed to access flight information for two major airlines. 20 randomly selected students accessed one airline's Web site, and the time required to locate the flight information had a mean of 2.5 minutes and a standard deviation of 0.8 minute. 20 different randomly selected students accessed the other airline's Website, and the time required to locate the flight information on that site had a mean of 2.1 minutes and a standard deviation of 1.1 minutes. Assuming that the conditions for inference are met, which of the following statements about the p-value is true?A. The p-value is less than 0.01; therefore, there is a significant difference in mean search times on the two WebsitesB. The p-value is greater than 0.01 but less than 0.05; therefore, there is a significant difference in mean search times on the two WebsitesC. The p-value is greater than 0.05 but less than 0.10; therefore, there is a significant difference in mean search times on the two WebsitesD. The p-value is greater than 0.10; therefore, there is no significant difference in mean search times on the two WebsitesE. Since this is a matched-pairs situation, additional information is needed to perform a test of significance.

Whereby the p-value is less than the significance level or pre-defined number we reject the null hypothesis that there is no difference in the mean time it takes to access the Websites of the two major airlines

Where the p-value is larger than the significant level, we fail to reject the null hypothesis and therefore, there is not enough evidence to indicate that the mean time to access the Websites of the two major airlines are different

The p-value is compared with a given level for the test, for it to be assed

The option that has the correct inference based on only one significant level or predefined is the p-value is less than 0.01; therefore, there is a significant difference in mean search times on the two Websites

The statement which can be true about the p-value is (A).

A. The p-value is less than 0.01; therefore, there is a significant difference in mean search times on the two Websites

What is the p-value?

The p-value in statistics is the likelihood of getting outcomes at least as severe as the observed results of a statistical hypothesis test, given the null hypothesis is valid.

The reason for option A is correct.

We reject the null hypothesis that there is no difference in the meantime it takes to visit the Websites of the two main airlines when the p-value is less than the significance level or pre-defined number.

We fail to reject the null hypothesis when the p-value is greater than the significant threshold

Hence there is insufficient evidence to suggest that the meantime to visit the websites of the two main airlines is different.

For the test to be assessed, the p-value is compared to a predefined level.

The p-value is less than 0.01 in the option that has the accurate inference based on only one significant level or predetermined; hence, there is a considerable difference in mean search times.
