9. Population Claim: the population mean age is 50. (Null Hypothesis: REJECT Suppose the sample mean age is 20: x = 20 Sample Null Hypothesis 20 likely if = 50? Is Hypothesis Testing Process If not likely, Now select a random sample H 0 : = 50 ) x
10. Reason for Rejecting H 0 Sampling Distribution of x = 50 If H 0 is true If it is unlikely that we would get a sample mean of this value ... ... then we reject the null hypothesis that = 50. 20 ... if in fact this were the population mean… x
