    (A) We failed to reject the null hypothesis

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given that a high school teacher hypothesized that in her class, boys were taller than girls. If the probability value of her null hypothesis is 0.34, it means:

    Here p value is 0.34

    This is greater than 0.05 or 0.1 i. e. both for 5% significance and 10% significance.

    Whenever p > alpha, we fail to reject null hypothesis

    A) We failed to reject the null hypothesis

    This would be the correct option

    i. e. final conclusion is that there is no significant difference between mean height of girls and mean height of boys at 5% or 10% significance level.
