A sample data is drawn from a normal population with unknown mean mu and known variance. The P-value for the test H0 : mu = 10 vs H1 : mu < 10 is 0.05. (a) Would you reject H0 : mu = 10 in favor of H1 : mu < 10 at the level 4% of significance? (b) Would you reject H0 : mu = 9 in favor of H1 : mu < 9 at the level 5% of significance?

05. This means that if the null hypothesis is true (i.e., if the population mean is 10), the probability of obtaining a sample mean as extreme as the one observed (or more extreme) is 0.05. Show more…

Consider the following null and alternative hypothesis: H0: ÎĽ = 120 Ha: ÎĽ > 120 A random sample of 81 observations taken from this population produced a sample mean of 123.5 and a sample standard deviation of 15. If this test is made at a 2.5% significance level, would you reject the null hypothesis?

Consider $H_{0}: \mu=80$ versus $H_{1}: \mu \neq 80$ for a population that is normally distributed. a. A random sample of 25 observations taken from this population produced a sample mean of 77 and a standard deviation of 8 . Using $\alpha=.01$, would you reject the null hypothesis? b. Another random sample of 25 observations taken from the same population produced a sample mean of 86 and a standard deviation of $6 .$ Using $\alpha=.01$, would you reject the null hypothesis?

We perform a t-test for the null hypothesis Ho = ÎĽ = 10 by means of a dataset consisting of n = 16 elements with a sample mean of 11 and a sample variance of 4. We use a significance level of 0.05. Should we reject the null hypothesis in favor of H1 = ÎĽ different from 10? Answer "y" or "n". What if we test against H1 = ÎĽ > 10?
