A study claims that the mean age of online dating service users is 40 years. Some researchers think this is not accurate and wan
t to show that the mean age is not 40 years. Identify the null hypothesis, H0, and the alternative hypothesis, Ha, in terms of the parameter μ. Select the correct answer below: H0: μ≥40; Ha: μ<40 H0: μ≤40; Ha: μ>40 H0: μ≠40; Ha: μ=40 H0: μ=40; Ha: μ≠40
A null hypothesis is a hypothesis where a researcher generally try to disprove, it says that there is no statistically significant relationship between the two variables .
An alternative hypothesis says that there is a statistical significance between two variables.
