We wish to test the null hypothesis that Population Mean 60.
Assume that the population is normally distributed and we know the population standard deviation.
To test this hypothesis, we use a 5% significance level.
We wish to test the null hypothesis that Population Mean s 60. Assume that the population is normally distributed and we know the population standard deviation. To test this hypothesis, we use a 5% significance level. For what range of test statistic values will we Reject the null hypothesis? Hint: When do you reject the Null Hypothesis or what is the rejection region? 1.645 >1.96Explanation / Answer
The test is right tailed test, and since population standard deviation is known, the test is Z test
The critical value of Z at 5% level of significance( for right tailed test ) is 1.645. Since it is right tailed,
We reject null hypothesis if test statistic is > 1.645
Option 1) is correct
