H0:
A
Left-tailed test
B
Two-tailed test
C
Right-tailed test
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -How can we tell whether it is a one-tailed or a two-tailed test? It depends on the original claim in the question. A one-tailed test looks for an “increase” or “decrease” in the parameter whereas a two-tailed test looks for a “change” (could be increase or decrease) in the parameter.

Detailed explanation-2: -Our null hypothesis is that the mean is equal to x. A two-tailed test will test both if the mean is significantly greater than x and if the mean significantly less than x.
