Plain-text version
Consider the following null and alternative hypotheses: H₀: π = 0·16 H₁: π > 0·16 The above setup (A) indicates a one-tailed test with a rejection area in the right tail (B) indicates a one-tailed test with a rejection area in the left tail (C) indicates a two-tailed test with an acceptance region in the right tail (D) indicates a two-tailed test with a rejection area in the right tail
Also written as: Consider the following null and alternative hypotheses: H_0: pi = 0*16 H_1: pi > 0*16 The above setup
