o see whether this is the case. What conclusion is appropriate in each of the following situations?
(a) n = 15, t = 1.66, a = 0.05
a. Reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence that the true diameter differs from 0.5 in
b. Reject the null hypothesis. There is not sufficient evidence that the true diameter differs from 0.5 in
c. Do not reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence that the true diameter differs from 0.5 in
d. Do not reject the null hypothesis. There is not sufficient evidence that the true diameter differs from 0.5 in
(b) n = 15, t = 1.66, a = 0.05
a. Reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence that the true diameter differs from 0.5 in
b. Reject the null hypothesis. There is not sufficient evidence that the true diameter differs from 0.5 in
c. Do not reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence that the true diameter differs from 0.5 in
d. Do not reject the null hypothesis. There is not sufficient evidence that the true diameter differs from 0.5 in
(c) n = 26, t = 2.55, a = 0.01
a. Reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence that the true diameter differs from 0.5 in
b. Reject the null hypothesis. There is not sufficient evidence that the true diameter differs from 0.5 in
c. Do not reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence that the true diameter differs from 0.5 in
d. Do not reject the null hypothesis. There is not sufficient evidence that the true diameter differs from 0.5 in
(d) n = 26, t = 3.95
a. Reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence that the true diameter differs from 0.5 in
b. Reject the null hypothesis. There is not sufficient evidence that the true diameter differs from 0.5 in
c. Do not reject the null hypothesis. There is not sufficient evidence that the true diameter differs from 0.5 in
d. Do not reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence that the true diameter differs from 0.5 in
