Since the P-value is greater than or less than the significance level, fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis. There is or is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that presidents tend to be taller than their opponents. 

 

Since the confidence interval cotains zero, only positive values, or only zero values | reject or warrent rejection of the null hypothesis. 

A popular theory is that presidential candidates have an advantage if they are taller than their main opponents. Listed are heights (in centimeters) of randomly selected
presidents along with the heights of their main opponents. Complete parts (a) and (b) below.
Height (cm) of President
178 186 172 179 184 175
Height (cm) of Main Opponent 170 184 167 167 180 183
a. Use the sample data with a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that for the population of heights for presidents and their main opponents, the differences have a
mean greater than 0 cm.
In this example, μg is the mean value of the differences d for the population of all pairs of data, where each individual difference d is defined as the president's height
minus their main opponent's height. What are the null and alternative hypotheses for the hypothesis test?
Ho: Hd = 0 cm
H₁: Hd> 0 cm
(Type integers or decimals. Do not round.)
Identify the test statistic.
