    Interpreting a Decision





    Suppose you perform a hypothesis test for each of the following claims. How you should interpret your decision if you reject H0 or fail to reject H0?

    • Ha (Claim): Dr Nayyar Claims that the mean IQ level of MPH Students is less than 80
    • H0: (Claim) Abasyn Administration claims that the proportion of the students who get degrees of MPH From us get government jobs is


    80 %



    Solution:

    1. The null hypothesis is the mean IQ level of the MPH Class is greater than or equal to 80

    If you reject H0 , Then you should conclude there is enough evidence to support the Dr Nayyar’s claim that the mean IQ level of the MPH Class is less than 80, if you fail to reject H0 then you should conclude that there is not enough evidence to support Dr Nayyar’s Claim.

    2. if you reject Ho , then you should conclude that there is sufficient evidence to support that 80% of Abasyn Graduate do not get government jobs

    If you failed to reject the H0 : Then you should conclude there is not sufficient evidence to indicate that 80% of Abasyn Graduates get government jobs.
