Question

When the following hypotheses are being tested at a level of significance of $\alpha$H₀: $\mu$ 500 H_a: $\mu$ < 500 The null hypothesis will be rejected if the p-value is A) ≤ $\alpha$ B)> $\alpha$ C)> $\alpha$/2 D)≤1 - $\alpha$/2

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The null hypothesis will be rejected if the p-value is less than or equal to the significance level, which is given by F1F1F1S1F1F1F10. Therefore, option A is the correct answer. Options B and C are incorrect because they indicate the opposite case, where the null hypothesis will not be rejected. Option D is incorrect because it suggests a different calculation for the p-value that is not applicable in this case.
