Question

The owner of a football team claims that the average attendance at games is over 68,800, and he is therefore justified in moving the team to a city with a larger stadium. A) $\mathrm { H } _ { 0 } : \mu > 68,800$ $\mathrm { H } _ { 1 } : \mu \leq 68,800$ B) $\mathrm { H } _ { 0 } : \mu < 68,800$ $\mathrm { H } _ { 1 } : \mu \geq 68,800$ C) $\mathrm { H } _ { 0 } : \mu = 68,800$ $\mathrm { H } _ { 1 } : \mu < 68,800$ D) $\mathrm { H } _ { 0 } : \mu = 68,800$ $\mathrm { H } _ { 1 } : \mu > 68,800$

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The null hypothesis ($H_0$) should state that the average attendance is 68,800, while the alternative hypothesis ($H_1$) should state that it is greater than 68,800, as the owner claims the average is over 68,800.
