Explanation / Answer

Please remember in your mind 'even if we fail to reject the null hypothesis, it does not mean the null hypothesis is true'

3. So we don't say accept null hypothesis. We say that we fail to reject null hypothesis for lack of eveidence to prove that pop. propotion is not equal to .25

So, B is right interpretation of 'DO NOT REEJECT H0'

2. C is right. There is sufficient info to prove pop. prop = .25

Please note that 3 and 4 are not the same. Meaning, do not reject H0 and accept H0 are actually not the same. They are different interpretations.
