Question

A null and alternative hypothesis are given. Determine whether the hypothesis test is​ left-tailed, right-tailed, or​ two-tailed. Upper H 0​: p less than or equals 0.6 Upper H Subscript a​: p greater than 0.6 What type of test is being conducted in this​ problem?

Answer 1

Answer: right-tailed

Explanation:

By considering the given information , we have

Null hypothesis :
`H_0: p\leq0.6`

Alternative hypothesis :
`H_a: p>0.6`

The kind of test (whether left-tailed, right-tailed, or​ two-tailed.) is based on alternative hypothesis.

Since the given alternative hypothesis(
`H_a`) is right-tailed , so out test is a right-tailed test.

Hence, the correct answer is "right-tailed".
