You may need to use the appropriate appendix table or technology to answer this question. Fourteen individuals participated in a taste test involving two brands of a product. Sample results show 9 preferred brand \( A \), 3 preferred brand \( B \), and 2 were unable to state a preference. With \( \alpha=0.05 \), test for a significant difference in the preferences for the two brands. State the null and alternative hypotheses. (Let \( p= \) the probability of a preference for brand A.) \( H_{0}: p=0.50 \) \( H_{a}: p \neq 0.50 \) \( H_{0}: p \neq 0.50 \) \( H_{a}: p=0.50 \) \( H_{0}: p \geq 0.50 \) \( H_{a}: p<0.50 \) \( H_{0}: p>0.50 \) \( H_{a}: p=0.50 \) \( H_{0}: p \leq 0.50 \) \( H_{a}: p>0.50 \) Find the number of plus signs. X plus signs Find the \( p \)-value. (Round your answer to four decimal places.) \( p \)-value \( = \) What is your conclusion? Do not reject \( H_{0} \). There is not sufficient evidence to indicate that a significant difference in preference exists. Reject \( H_{0} \). There is not sufficient evidence to indicate that a significant difference in preference exists. Do not reject \( H_{0} \). There is sufficient evidence to indicate that a significant difference in preference exists. Reject \( H_{0} \). There is sufficient evidence to indicate that a significant differençe in preference exists.
