Afitnesscenterclaimsthatthemeanamountoftimethatapersonspendsatthegym

pervisitis 33 minutes.Identifythenulhypothesis,H 0 ,andthealternative

hypothesis,Ha,intermsoftheparameterμ.

H 0 :μ≠ 33 ;Ha:μ= 33 H 0 :μ= 33 ;Ha:μ≠ 33 H 0 :μ≥ 33 ;Ha:μ< 33 H 0 :μ≤ 33 ;Ha:μ> 33

AnswerExplanation

Correctanswer:

H 0 :μ= 33 ;Ha:μ≠ 33

Lettheparameterμ beusedtorepresentthemean.Thenulhypothesisisalways statedwithsomeform ofequality:equal(=),greaterthanorequalto(≥),orlessthan orequalto(≤).Therefore,inthiscase,thenulhypothesisH 0 isμ= 33 .The alternativehypothesisiscontradictorytothenulhypothesis,soHa isμ ≠ 33.
