Answer:

Alternative hypothesis:\mu_1 -\mu_2 \neq 0

Or in the alternative way would be:

 Alternative hypothesis:\mu_1 \neq \mu_2

Step-by-step explanation:

A hypothesis is defined as "a speculation or theory based on insufficient evidence that lends itself to further testing and experimentation. With further testing, a hypothesis can usually be proven true or false".  

The null hypothesis is defined as "a hypothesis that says there is no statistical significance between the two variables in the hypothesis. It is the hypothesis that the researcher is trying to disprove".

The alternative hypothesis is "just the inverse, or opposite, of the null hypothesis. It is the hypothesis that researcher is trying to prove".

On this case the claim that they want to test is: "The means for the two groups (American Idol and 60 Minutes) is the same". So we want to check if we have significant differences between the two means, so this needs to be on the alternative hypothesis and on the null hypothesis we need to have the complement of the alternative hypothesis.

Null hypothesis:\mu_1 -\mu_2 = 0

This null hypothesis can be expressed like this:

Null hypothesis:\mu_1 = \mu_2

Alternative hypothesis:\mu_1 -\mu_2 \neq 0

Or in the alternative way would be:

Alternative hypothesis:\mu_1 \neq \mu_2

Reasons:

The dimensions of the toy chest are;

Toy chest A;

Length = 5 feet

Width = 4 feet

Height = 2 feet

Toy chest B;

Length = 4 feet

Width = 2 feet

Height = 4 feet

Volume of Toy chest A = 5 ft. × 4 ft. × 2 ft. = 40 ft.³

Volume of Toy chest B = 4 ft. × 2 ft. × 4 ft. = 32 ft.³

The volume of the toy chest Mrs. Smith needs = 35 ft.³

The toy chest Mrs. Smith should purchase is Toy chest A, that has a volume of 40 ft.³, which can store items that with a volume of 35 ft.³

The correct option is; <u>Only toy chest A will provide the necessary storage space</u>

<em>Possible question options obtained from a similar question found online are;</em>

<em>Either toy chest have the storage space needed</em>

<em>Neither has the storage space needed</em>

<em>Only toy chest A</em>

<em>Only toy chest B</em>
