The hypotheses in the parametric case of means for two independent samples take the form of comparing the means of two populations. In this case, the null hypothesis states that the means are equal (μ1 = μ2) and the alternative hypothesis states that the means are not equal (μ1 ≠ μ2). Option A correctly represents this format, while options B, C, and D represent different types of hypotheses, such as hypothesis testing for variances (option B), one-sample means (option C), and proportions (option D).
