You have created a 95% confidence interval for μ with the result 10 ≤ μ ≤ 15. What decision will you make if we test H0: μ = 16 versus H1: μ ≠ 16 at α = 0.10? Group of answer choices A) Reject H0 in favor of H1. B) Do not reject H0 in favor of H1. C) Fail to reject H0 in favor of H1. D) We cannot tell what our decision will be from the information given.

Step 1
However, our 95% confidence interval for μ is between 10 and 15. This means that we are 95% confident that the true population mean falls within this range. Since 16 is not within this range, we have evidence to reject the null hypothesis. Show more…

We have created a 95% confidence interval for μ with the result (10, 15). What decision will we make if we test H0 : μ = 16 versus H1 : μ ≠ 16 at α = 0.05? Select one: Reject H0 in favor of H1. Accept H0 in favor of H1. Fail to reject H0 in favor of H1. We cannot tell what our decision will be from the information given.

20) We have created a 99% confidence interval for μ with the result (10, 15). What conclusion will we make if we test H0: μ = 17 vs. Ha: μ ≠ 17 at α = .01? A) Reject H0 in favor of Ha. B) Fail to reject H0. C) Accept H0 rather than Ha. D) We cannot tell what our decision will be with the information given.

We have provided a sample standard deviation and sample size. In each case, use the one-standard-deviation $x^{2}$ -test and the one-standard-deviation $x^{2}$ -interval procedure to conduct the required hypothesis test and obtain the specified confidence interval. $s=5$ and $n=20$ a. $H_{0}: \sigma=6, H_{\mathrm{a}}: \sigma \neq 6, \alpha=0.05$ b. $95 \%$ confidence interval
