Using the data below and a 0.05 significance level, test the claim that the responses occur with percentages of 15%, 20%, 25%, 25%, and 15% respectively. Select the correct conclusion about the null hypothesis.

Response: A, B, C, D, E
Frequency: 12, 15, 16, 18, 19
A) Fail to reject the null hypothesis. There is not sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the responses occur according to the stated percentages.
B) Reject the null hypothesis. There is not sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the responses occur according to the stated percentages.
C) Fail to reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the responses occur according to the stated percentages.
D) Reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the responses occur according to the stated percentages.
