A test statistic is a rule, based on sample data, for deciding whether to reject the null e. All of the above statements are correctly stated hypothesis Ho or accepting Ho since i is the claim that the researcher would really like to validate. claim. hypothesis 10. Which of the following statements are true? a. The null hypothesis, denoted by H, is the claim that is initially assumed to be true b. The alternative hypothesis, denoted by H, is the assertion that is contradictory to c. The null hypothesis H will be rejected in favor of the alternative hypothesis only d.

Explanation / Answer

Ans:

9)Option c is not correct,as null hypothesis can be stateted in form of atleast or >= and atmost or <= signs.

The research hypothesis  is our working hypothesis -- our prediction, or what we expect to happen. It is also called the alternative hypothesis - because it is an alternative to the null hypothesis.

A test statistic is a rule, based on sample data, for deciding whether to reject H0. The test statistic is a function of the sample data that will be used to make a decision about whether the null hypothesis should be rejected or not.

10)

Option e is true(all of the above statements are true)
