In the given, Ho: μ = 21.5 and Ha: μ > 21.5 show a one-tailed test since it
shows direction of the distribution.
NUMBER 4
The rejection region for a hypothesis test is also called the critical region.
NUMBER 5
The two types of significance test are one-tailed and two- tailed test.
NUMBER 6
We don’t need to set the level of the significance because we can get 100%
accuracy level in testing hypothesis.
NUMBER 8
A two-tailed test shows that the null hypothesis may be rejected when the
test value is on the critical region on either side of the distribution.
NUMBER 9
In a two-tailed test, the null hypothesis should not be rejected when the
test value is on either of the two critical regions.

In general, if the absolute value of the computed value is greater than the
absolute value of the critical value, we reject the null hypothesis and
support the alternative hypothesis. But if the absolute value of the computed
value is less than the absolute value of the critical value, we do not reject or
we fail to reject the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis is not
supported.
In a right-tailed test, if the computed value is greater than the critical value, we
reject the null hypothesis and support the alternative hypothesis. But if the
computed value is less than the critical value, we do not reject or we fail to reject
the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis is not supported.
In a left-tailed test, if the computed value is less than the critical value, we reject
the null hypothesis and support the alternative hypothesis. But if the computed
value is greater than the critical value, we do not reject or we fail to reject the
null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis is not supported.
Example 1: Compute for its value given the following information. Use
α = 0. 05. Interpret the result.
Ho: μ = 70 x̅= 71.5 μ = 70
Ha: μ > 70 σ=8 n = 100
Type of Test:
z-test or t-test:
Critical value =
Example 2: Compute for its value given the following
information. Use
α = 0.01. Interpret the result.
Ho: μ = 127 x̅= 124.5 μ = 127
Ha: μ < 127 s = 5 n = 12
Type of Test:
z-test or t-test:
Critical value =
Example 3: The government claims that P10,000 is the
monthly expenses of a Filipino family with four members. A
sample of 26 families has mean monthly expenses of P10,900
and a standard deviation of P1,250. Is there enough evidence
to reject the government’s claim at α = 2.5%?
Type of Test:
z-test or t-test:

What I Have Learned
If the computed test statistic is in the critical region, then we (1)___________the null hypothesis.
In general, if the absolute value of the computed test statistic (i.e., z-value or t-value) is greater
than the absolute value of the critical value, we (2)______________ the null hypothesis and
support the alternative hypothesis. But if the absolute value of the computed test statistic is less
than the absolute value of the critical value, we (3)_______________ the null hypothesis and the
alternative hypothesis is not supported.
In a right-tailed test, if the computed value is (4)____________ the critical value, we reject the null
hypothesis and support the alternative hypothesis. But if the computed value
(5)________________ the critical value, we fail to reject the null hypothesis and the alternative
hypothesis is not supported.
In a left-tailed test, if the computed value is less than the critical value, we
(6)_____________________the null hypothesis and support the alternative hypothesis. But if the
computed value is greater than the critical value, we (7)_________________ the null hypothesis
and the alternative hypothesis is not supported.
Am I Rejected or Not? (Note: Use the table for the z- and t-critical values.)
