Question

what is the correct order for the steps of hypothesis testing? state the null and the alternative. determine the level of significance. determine the type of distribution and test. define the rejection region. calculate the test statistic. make a decision. interpret the results. state the null and the alternative. define the rejection region. determine the level of significance. calculate the test statistic. make a decision. interpret the results. determine the type of distribution and test.

Explanation:

Hypothesis testing starts with stating hypotheses. Then, significance level (determines rejection region) is set. Next, distribution and test type (affect test statistic calculation) are determined. Rejection region is defined. Test statistic is calculated. Decision (reject/accept null) is made. Results are interpreted.

Answer:

State the null and the alternative. Determine the level of significance. Determine the type of distribution and test. Define the rejection region. Calculate the test statistic. Make a decision. Interpret the results.
