Answer to Question #180643 in Quantitative Methods for Joshua Cornfield

Question

For a p-value of 0.0052, test your hypothesis using .01 as the level of significance

Select one:

a. I reject Hnull

b. I fail to reject Hnull

c. Neither

Answer 1

We have that

p-value = 0.0052

α = 0.01

Since 0.0052 < 0.01 thus p-value is lower than the level of significance therefore we reject the null hypothesis H₀ and accept the alternative H_a.
