We are testing H₀: μ ≥ 2.5;versus H_A: μ

Question

We are testing H₀: μ ≥ 2.5;versus H_A: μ < 2.5.When = 2.46,s = .05,and n = 26,at α = .10 we reject the null hypothesis.(Assume that the population from which the sample is selected is normally distributed. )

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Since we rejected the null hypothesis at α = .10, it means that we have evidence to support the alternative hypothesis H_A: μ < 2.5. Therefore, the statement "μ ≥ 2.5" in the null hypothesis is not supported by the data, and we can conclude that the true population mean is less than 2.5 at a significance level of α = .10.
