A medical researcher wants to determine if the average hospital stay of patients that undergo a certain procedure is less than 6 days. The hypotheses for this scenario are as follows: Null Hypothesis: 6, Alternative Hypothesis: < 6. If the researcher takes a random sample of patients and calculates a p-value of 0.4381 based on the data, what is the appropriate conclusion? Conclude at the 5% level of significance.

Question 12 options:

1)

The true average hospital stay of patients is longer than or equal to 6 days.

2)

We did not find enough evidence to say the true average hospital stay of patients is longer than 6 days.

3)

We did not find enough evidence to say the true average hospital stay of patients is shorter than 6 days.

4)

The true average hospital stay of patients is significantly shorter than 6 days.

5)

We did not find enough evidence to say a significant difference exists between the true average hospital stay of patients and 6 days.
