Answer:
allows us to accept the null hypothesis
Step-by-step explanation:
The z test(in a normal distribution) score for the critical region determines whether we reject the null hypothesis(H0) or accept the null hypothesis(reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis). If we fail to reject the null hypothesis, then we have accepted the alternative hypothesis (H1). The critical region rejection for z test is calculated using alpha and z score, if z score is greater or less than alpha(positive or negative), we reject the null hypothesis.
