What can be concluded by failing to reject the null hypothesis?
either that the null hypothesis is correct or that the test procedure is not strong enough (i.e. that the sample size is not large enough) to reject the null hypothesis
that the null hypothesis is correct, therefore the alternative hypothesis should be rejected
that the function of the alternative hypothesis is incorrect
that the alternative hypothesis is correct, therefore the null hypothesis should be rejected
If we fail to reject the null hypothesis, either that the null hypothesis is correct or that the test procedure is not strong enough (i.e. that the sample size is not large enough) to reject the null hypothesis. It is not direct that the null hypothesis is accepted and alternative hypothesis is rejected. So the correct option should be A.
The correct answer is A. Failing to reject the null hypothesis means that there is not enough evidence to support the alternative hypothesis. It does not necessarily mean that the null hypothesis is true or that the alternative hypothesis is false. It could mean that the null hypothesis is correct, or it could indicate that the test procedure is not strong enough (e.g., due to a small sample size) to detect a significant difference and reject the null hypothesis.

if a hypothesis test leads to failing to reject the null hypothesis, a___ a) type II error must have been committed b) type II error MAY have been committed c) type I error MAY have been commited
1. You want to test whether you can reject the null hypothesis that a population mean is greater than or equal to 10. To do this, you collect a random sample of size 500 from the population, and you calculate that the sample mean and sample standard deviation are 8.6 and s, respectively. Which of the following is true? a. If s is any value between 11 and 13, you can reject the null hypothesis at the 5% significance level....
On the basis of sample information, we either "accept the null hypothesis" or "reject the null hypothesis." True O False
1. Null and alternative hypotheses are statements about A. population parameters. B. sample parameters. C. sample statistics. D. population statistics. E. It depends on the situation and the type of data has been collected. 2. A hypothesis test is conducted under the initial assumption that A. the alternative hypothesis is false. B. the alternative hypothesis is true. C. the null hypothesis is false. D. the null hypothesis is true. E. We never make any assumptions when conducting a hypothesis test....

If we reject a null hypothesis at the 1% significance level, then we have hypothesis is false. evidence that the null For this problem create your own t-test and state your null hypothesis, alternative hypothesis Draw out the normal distribution curve and the critical region. You can assume a two tail test. Label the critical region. strong weak non existent
Using either the critical value rule or the p-value rule, if a one-sided null hypothesis for a single mean cannot be rejected at a given significance level, then the corresponding two-sided null hypothesis (i.e., the same sample size, the same standard deviation, and the same mean) will ______________ be rejected at the same significance level. always sometimes never
(3 points) Suppose that you're going to do a test of significance with null hypothesis 30 and alternative hypothesis 30 You take a sample of size 88 and compute the sample mean I assume that the population standard deviation of the variable is o 7.1 and that the sampling distribution of the sample mean is normal a if you carry a hypothesis test with significance level 05, what values of will cause us to reject the null hypothesis in favor...
A P-value of 0.12 is calculated on a hypothesis test with a significance level set at 0.01. Which of the following is the correct conclusion for the test? a. Claim the null hypothesis is true b. Fail to reject the null hypothesis c. Reject the null hypothesis d. Claim the alternative hypothesis is true Which of the following are not requirements for using the t-distribution for a hypothesis test concerning μ? (More than one answer may be correct.) a. Sample...
A friend has performed a significance test of the null hypothesis that two means are equal. His report states that the null hypothesis is rejected in favor of the alternative that the first mean is larger than the second. In a presentation on his work, he notes that the first sample mean was larger than the second mean and this is why he chose this particular one-sided alternative. 1. Explain what is wrong with your friend's procedure and why. a....
11. If we reject the null hypothesis, what can we conclude, subject to the probability, α? Multiple Choice Reject the null with a probability, α, of making a Type I error. The alternative hypothesis is false. The null hypothesis is true. Both the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis are true. 12. The average cost of tuition and room and board at a small private liberal arts college is reported to be $8,500 per term. A financial administrator believes that...
