Suppose that we reject a null hypothesis at the 0.02 level of significance. The null hypothesis will definitely also be rejected for all the following α-values except for: A. 0.01B. 0.2C. 0.1D. 0.4E. 0.03
Suppose that we reject a null hypothesis at the 0.1 level of significance. Then for which of the following α−values do we also reject the null hypothesis? A. 0.2B. 0.02C. 0.01D. 0.002E. 0.001
A researcher conducts a hypothesis test on a population proportion. Her null and alternative hypothesis are H0:p = 0.4 and Ha: p < 0.4. The test statistic and p-value for the test are z = -3.01 and p-value = 0.0013. For asignificance level of a= 0.05, choose the correct conclusion regarding the null hypothesis.H0:________________________ Ha:_______________________Compare the p-value and a:_______________Decision:_________________________Conclusion:___________________________________________________________
