Hypothesis Testing: • In this case, compare to known
3. From the table below, please calculate the S2 (variance) and S(Standard Deviation) !!
4. Given a p-value of 0.065, and using the customary α = 5%, the conclusion should be: • Do not reject the null hypothesis • Reject the null hypothesis • Not enough information to determine • Whatever
5. A skeptical paranormal researcher claims that the proportion of Americans that have seen a UFO, p, is less than 5 in every one thousand. • HO: p< 0.005 H1: p>0.005 • HO: p> 0.005 H1: p< 0.005 • HO: p>0.005 H1: p< 0.005 • HO: p < 0.005H1: p > 0.005
