Question

A hypothesis test has a significance level of 10%. Explain what this significance level represents.

Answer 1

1.)A significance level of 10% means that there is a 10% probability of rejecting the null hypothesis incorrectly.
2.) the significance level determines the critical region of the hypothesis test

Answer 2

A significance level of 10% i.e.0.10 represents the chance of rejecting the null hypothesis

Explanation:

Given :A hypothesis test has a significance level of 10%.

To Find :Explain what this significance level represents.

Solution :

Definition : The significance level is the probability of rejecting the null hypothesis when it is true.

So, significance level = 10%.

This means there is a 0.10 chance of rejecting the null hypothesis

Hence a significance level of 10% i.e.0.10 represents the chance of rejecting the null hypothesis
