Question

The owner of a football team claims that the average attendance at games is over 523, and he is therefore justified in moving the team to a city with a larger stadium. Assuming that a hypothesis test of the claim has been conducted and that the conclusion is failure to reject the null hypothesis, state the conclusion in nontechnical terms. A There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean attendance is less than 523. B) There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean attendance is greater than 523. C) There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean attendance is greater than 523. D) There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean attendance is less than 523.
