How do we determine if we reject or fail to reject a null hypothesis? What are the key pieces needed when writing a conclusion?
1. What are null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis? 2. Inastatisticaltest,wehavethechoiceofatwo-tailedtest,aleft- tailed test, or a right-tailed test. Which hypothesis is the determining factor for choosing the direction of the test? (In other words, how would you decide it) 3. Forthesamesampledataandnullhypothesis,howdoesthe P-value for a two-tailed test compare to that for a one-tailed test? 4. Using P-value method, how would you reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis? (what is the decision criteria?) How does level of significance matter to the hypothesis...
1. Conduct a test of the null hypothesis that the mean height for all students in the Census at School database is equal to 155 cm vs the alternative that the mean Height is greater than 155 cm. Use a significance level of 0.05. a. State the null and alternative hypotheses. Ho: m = 155 Ha: m > 155 b. Provide the Statcrunch output table. Hypothesis test results: Variable Sample Mean Std. Err. DF T-Stat P-value Height 159.86 1.7311103 49...
Identify the null hypothesis, alternative hypothesis, test statistic, P-value, conclusion about the null hypothesis, and final conclusion that addresses the original claim. Use the P-value method. Use the normal distribution as an approximation of the binomial distribution. 7. In a recent poll of 745 randomly selected adults, 585 said that it is morally wrong to not report all income on tax returns. Use a 0.01 significance level report all income on tax returns. Identify the null hypothesis, altemative hypothesis, test...
Given the following null and alternative hypotheses, the test statistic from the sample data is z=1.875z=1.875. If the significance level of 0.05 which results in a critical value of 1.645, what is the conclusion as it relates to the null hypothesis? H0:p=0.22 H1:p>0.22 Fail to reject the alternative hypothesis Reject the null hypothesis Fail to reject the null hypothesis Support the null hypothesis
Test the given claim. Identify the null hypothesis, alternative hypothesis, test statistic, P-value, and then state the conclusion about the null hypothesis, as well as the final conclusion that addresses the original claim. Among 2135 passenger cars in a particular region, 241 had only rear license plates. Among 391 commercial trucks, 59 had only rear license plates. A reasonable hypothesis is that commercial trucks owners violate laws requiring front license plates at a higher rate than owners of passenger cars....
37. Use the following information for questions 37-38: Suppose you conduct a hypothesis test to determine whether or not the average age difference between married couples is less than 5 years. You conduct this test at the 0.10 significance level and come to the conclusion that 0.01 < p-value < 0.02. What is the correct decision? a. Fail to Reject the Null Hypothesis b. Reject the Null Hypothesis c. Accept the Null Hypothesis d. Accept the Alternative Hypothesis
A test of hypotheses for one proportion has the following Null Hypothesis: pi = 0.33, and uses 0.10 for the level of significance. a. If the calculated value for the associated test statistic equals -1.71, determine the p-VALUE for the test 0.0436 0.4564 0.2262 0.0872 b. If you compare the p-VALUE from Part a to the level of significance, what decision do you make? Fail to Reject Null Reject Alternative Reject Null Fail to Reject Alternative
The power of a test is the probability that we _____ the null hypothesis when the alternative hypothesis is _____. ? A) reject, true B) accept, true C) accept, false D) reject, false (IT IS NOT D)
Test the given claim. Identify the null hypothesis, alternative hypothesis, test statistic, P-value, and then state the conclusion about the null hypothesis, as well as the final conclusion that addresses the original claim. Among 2142 passenger cars in a particular region, 249 had only rear license plates. Among 332 commercial trucks, 49 had only rear license plates. A reasonable hypothesis is that commercial trucks owners violate laws requiring front license plates at a higher rate than owners of passenger cars....
