Question

In an examination of differences among the mean hamburger consumption of people in the United Kingdom,United States,France,and Korea,how would the null hypothesis be stated? A) H₀: π^UK > π^US > π^FR > π^KR B) H_A: π^UK + π^US > π^FR + π^KR C) H₀: μ^UK = μ^US = μ^FR = μ^KR D) H_A: π ≠ 0 E) H₀: μ = 0

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The most appropriate null hypothesis statement for testing the difference between the mean hamburger consumption of people in the United Kingdom, United States, France, and Korea is that the means are equal for all four countries. Thus, the null hypothesis would be H₀: μ^UK = μ^US = μ^FR = μ^KR.
