Which of the following results in a null hypothesis p=0.61 and alternative hypothesis p>0.61? - ✔✔Correct answer: A study says that at most 61% of students study less than 5 hours per week. A r ... esearcher thinks this is incorrect, and wants to show that more than 61% of students study less than 5 hours per week. Remember that the alternative hypothesis is the claim that the researcher is trying to show. The null hypothesis, p=0.61 corresponds to the claim in the study, and the alternative hypothesis, p>0.61 corresponds to what the researcher is trying to show (to reject the null hypothesis).

Several of her friends do not believe her, so she decides to do a hypothesis test, at a 10% significance level, to persuade them. She hits 15 drives. The mean distance of the sample drives is 188 meters. Olivia knows from experience that the standard deviation for her drive distance is 14 meters. H0: μ=174; Ha: μ>174 α=0.1 (significance level) What is the test statistic (z-score) of this one-mean hypothesis test, rounded to two decimal places? [Show More]
