Chapter 10: hypothesis testing for means and proportions: Ha: (v) that value in ho. Ha: > (v) that value in ho. Ha: < (v) that value in ho. One-sample test of the population mean: the easiest way to demonstrate the process of hypothesis testing involves situations in which. Ha: p (v) that value in ho. Ha: p > (v) that value in ho. Ha: p < (v) that value in ho. Ha: 1 < 2 we are evaluating a claim about a single population parameter. Ho in favour of the ha: compute sample statistics (psample, sd) and the standard error of the proportion (se, convert the sample proportion into a standardized z-score by using the following formula: z = (psample ppop)/se. If you assumed that the standard deviations of these small samples were unequal, the formula for the t-statistic is of the same form, but the estimate of the standard error of the differences in means is different.
