The mean height of a certain kind of plant is 153 centimeters. Suppose we want to carry out a hypothesis test to see if the mean height when these plants are treated with a certain chemical differs from 153. State the null hypothesis H0 and the alternative hypothesis H1 that we would use for this test. Ho: H1:

A biologist was interested in determining whether sunflower seedlings treated with an extract from Vinca minor roots resulted in a lower average height of sunflower seedlings than the standard height of 15.7 cm (σ = 3.5 cm). The biologist treated a random sample of n = 31 seedlings with the extract and subsequently obtained the sample mean: 13.8 cm. Use a 0.01 level of significance to test the hypothesis that μ = 15.7 (H0) against the alternative that μ < 15.7 (H1).

Let μ1 be the average height of sixth graders from California and μ2 be the average height of sixth graders from Texas. Assuming equal variances, conduct a left-tailed, independent t-test on the data. Select a correct set of null hypothesis H0 and alternative hypothesis Ha from the following: H0: μ1 = μ2 Ha: μ1 > μ2 H0: μ1 ≠ μ2 Ha: μ1 = μ2 H0: μ1 = μ2 Ha: μ1 ≠ μ2 H0: μ1 = μ2 Ha: μ1 < μ2
