Directions: Fill in each blank with the correct word or phrase. If the computed test statistic is in the critical region, then we ___________the null hypothesis.
Directions: Fill in each blank with the correct word or phrase.
If the computed test statistic is in the critical region, then we ___________the null hypothesis.
In general, if the absolute value of the computed test statistic (i.e., z- value or t-value) is greater than the absolute value of the critical value, we ______________ the null hypothesis and support the alternative hypothesis. But if the absolute value of the computed test statistic is less than the absolute value of the critical value, we _______________ the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis is not supported.
In a right-tailed test, if the computed value is ____________ the critical value, we reject the null hypothesis and support the alternative hypothesis. But if the computed value ________________ the critical value, we fail to reject the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis is not
supported.
In a left-tailed test, if the computed value is less than the critical value, we _____________________the null hypothesis and support the alternative hypothesis. But if the computed value is greater than the critical value, we _________________ the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis is not supported.
