Question

If the decision is to reject the null hypothesis at the 5% level of significance, what are the acceptable alternate hypothesis and rejection region? A) p₁$\neq$ p₂; z > 1.65 and z < -1.65 B) p₁$\neq$ p₂; z > 1.96 and z < -1.96 C) p₁> p₂; z < -1.65 D) p₁> p₂; z < -1.96

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The acceptable alternate hypothesis is that there is a significant difference between the two groups being compared. The rejection region at the 5% level of significance is z > 1.96 or z < -1.96 for a two-tailed test. Therefore, choice B is the best option.
