E is just trying to trip me up with that 'power of one minus Beta' nonsense. I'll stick with the good old A option!

D seems logical, but the wording is a bit confusing. I'm going to go with A, since that's the classic rule for rejecting the Null Hypothesis.

I think D is correct, but I see why it can be confusing.

Option C makes no sense. The Alpha level and P-value have nothing to do with the Beta level. This question is testing my understanding, not my guessing abilities.
