Part 2:o rats take less time on average than hamsters to travel through a maze? The table below shows the times in seconds that the rats and hamsters took.Rats: 21, 28, 38, 34, 25, 42, 35, 32Hamsters: 48, 43, 31, 39, 49, 27, 40, 40Assume that both populations follow a normal distribution. What can be concluded at the αα = 0.01 level of significance level of significance? a. The p-value =_______ (Please show your answer to 4 decimal places.) The p-value is ? ≤ or b. Based on this, we should? Select an answer fail to reject? accept? or reject? the null hypothesis.Thus, the final conclusion is that ...The results are statistically insignificant at αα = 0.01, so there is insufficient evidence to conclude that the population mean time to complete the maze for rats is less than the population mean time to complete the maze for hamsters.The results are statistically insignificant at αα = 0.01, so there is statistically significant evidence to conclude that the population mean time to complete the maze for rats is equal to the population mean time to complete the maze for hamsters.The results are statistically significant at αα = 0.01, so there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean time to complete the maze for the eight rats is less than the mean time to complete the maze for the eight hamsters.The results are statistically significant at αα = 0.01, so there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the population mean time to complete the maze for rats is less than the population mean time to complete the maze for hamsters.c.

Accepted Answer

It is given that:

There are two independent samples, Rats and Hamsters.
Since, the population…
