Answer 1

Kindly check explanation

Explanation:

The power of a test simply gives the probability of Rejecting the Null hypothesis, H0 in a statistical analysis given that the the alternative hypothesis, H1 for the study is true. Hence, the power of a test can be referred to as the probability of a true positive outcome in an experiment.

Using this definition, a power of 90% simply means that ; there is a 90% probability that the a Pvalue less Than the α - value of an experiment is obtained if there is truly a significant difference. Hence, a 90% chance of Rejecting the Null hypothesis if truly the alternative hypothesis is true.
