Question

If your claim is in the alternative hypothesis and you fail to reject the null hypothesis, then your conclusion would be:

Answer 1

There is not sufficient proof to support the claim.This is a type II error.

Explanation:

This is the type II error where the null hypothesis is wrong. But as you have failed to reject the null hypothesis and would not accept the alternate hypothesis it is type II error.

It means that there is not enough statistical evidence to prove your alternative claim.Your claim cannot be accepted or supported through given statistical data.

There is not sufficient proof to support the claim.

When null hypothesis is false then the wrong decision gives a type II error.
