what are the two decisions that you can make from performing a hypothesis test? select all that apply.
a. accept the alternative hypothesis
c. fail to reject the null hypothesis
e. reject the alternative hypothesis
g. reject the null hypothesis
b. accept the null hypothesis
d. fail to reject the alternative hypothesis
f. make a type ii error
h. make a type i error

Explanation:

In hypothesis testing, we can either reject the null hypothesis (when there is sufficient evidence against it) or fail to reject the null hypothesis (when there is not enough evidence to reject it). We do not "accept" hypotheses in the strict sense as there is always some uncertainty. Type - I and Type - II errors are about the incorrectness of decisions, not the decisions themselves.

Answer:

C. fail to reject the null hypothesis, G. reject the null hypothesis
