We conclude the hypothesis test as Alternative Hypothesis if the data would be very unusual if the original assumption about our parameter were correct.
A hypothesis in statistics is a claim or supposition on the properties of one or more variables in one or more populations. There are two hypothesis to choose between because a statement might either be true or wrong.
The null hypothesis is the assertion that we (or someone else) consider to be true. Our hypothesis test will come to one of two conclusions: "reject H0" or "do not reject H0." Remember that until data provide evidence to the contrary, we always proceed under the null hypothesis.
If the null hypothesis is incorrect, the alternative hypothesis must be true. The hypothesis test can be different in one of three ways: greater than, smaller than, or just different (not equal). As a result, there will always be an inequality requirement in the notation for H.
2/7 is the probability that the first satellite sends a weak signal. That leaves 6, one of which sends a weak signal. So the probability that the second also sends a weak signal is 1/6. Combine these and we get 2/7×1/6=1/21.
