For the goodness-of-fit test for normality, the null and alternative hypotheses are ________. A) H₀: Data does not follow a normal distribution, H_A: Data follows a normal distribution B) H₀: Data follows a normal distribution, H_A: Data does not follow a normal distribution C) H₀: Data follows a normal distribution, H_A: Data are skewed right D) H₀: Data follows a normal distribution, H_A: Data are skewed left

The null hypothesis for the goodness-of-fit test for normality is that the data follows a normal distribution. The alternative hypothesis is that the data does not follow a normal distribution. Therefore, choice B is the correct answer. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as they either have incorrect null or alternative hypotheses, or have hypotheses related to skewness rather than normality.
