The results are as follows: Teenagers: 4545 like, 5555 dislike Young Adults: 8585 like, 5555 dislike Adults: 7070 like, 3030 dislike Conduct a hypothesis test to determine if there is a significant difference in the preference for the new beverage flavor across the three age groups at significance α=0.05\alpha = 0.05 .
