问题如下:
The following table shows a set of data usd for a statistical test.
Peter sets up a null hypothesis--- H0: μ≥8.5, which of the following statement is most appropriate to describe Peter's objective?
选项:
A.Peter believe that the population mean is greater than 8.5.
B.Peter believe that the population mean is less than 8.5.
C.Peter believe that the population mean is 8.5.
解释:
B is correct.
If someone wants to reject a hypothesis, then he or she will place it in the null hypothesis.
老师,这道题的答案我能理解。只是奇怪,题目中明明已经给出了总体均值,此时做原假设,是不是应该原假设=总体均值比较合理,题目中的原假设小于总体均值,似乎不合常理?
