In a study investigating a link between walking and improved health, researchers reported that adults walked an average of 873
minutes in the past month for the purpose of health or recreation. Specify the null and alternative hypotheses for testing whether the true average number of minutes in the past month that adults walked for the purpose of health or recreation is lower than 873 minutes.
Given : In a study investigating a link between walking and improved health, researchers reported that adults walked an average of 873 minutes in the past month for the purpose of health or recreation.
Claim : The true average number of minutes in the past month that adults walked for the purpose of health or recreation is lower than 873 minutes.
i.e.
We know that the null hypothesis contains equal sign , then the set of hypothesis for the given situation will be :-
You will move the 7 to 18 but bc there is a equal sign you will change the positive sign to negative and just solve -7 plus 18 you will get 11 and that’s b
