Answer:

B. The p-value should be higher than 0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

p-value is smaller than 0.05 means that there is significant difference in mean bicep curls made with right hand and left hand.

Since 95% confidence interval for the true mean difference is given as  (-9.242, 0.2472), and confidence interval includes the value 0, we cannot say that there is significant difference. Therefore p-value is not smaller than 0.05, it is higher than 0.05.
