Using the results from the above two exercises, indicate how the critical value xc
is influenced by sample size. Next indicate how the critical value is influenced by
the population variance.
The critical value xc is farther away from the hypothesized value the smaller the
sample size n. This is due to the increase in the standard error with a smaller
sample size.
The critical value xc is farther away from the hypothesized value the larger the
population variance. This is due to the increased standard error with a larger
population variance.

c. the p-value would be higher – the graph should show that the p-value now

was the area in one of the tails.
d. A one-sided alternative is more appropriate since we are not interested in
detecting possible low levels of impurity, only high levels of impurity.

b. Yes, with a larger sample size, the standard error would be smaller and hence,
the calculated value of t would be larger. This would yield a smaller p-value

a. The null hypothesis is the statement that is assumed to be true unless there is
sufficient evidence to suggest that the null hypothesis can be rejected. The
alternative hypothesis is that the statement that will be accepted if there is
sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis
b. A simple hypothesis assumes a specific value for the population parameter
that is being tested. A composite hypothesis assumes a range of values for the
population parameter.
c. One sided alternatives can be either a one-tailed upper (> greater than) or a
one-tailed lower (< less than) statement about the population parameter. Two
sided alternatives are made up of both greater than or less than statements and
are written as ( not equal to).
d. A Type I error is falsely rejecting the null hypothesis. To make a Type I error,
the truth must be that the null hypothesis is really true and yet you conclude to
reject the null and accept the alternative. A Type II error is falsely not
rejecting the null hypothesis when in fact the null hypothesis is false. To
make a Type II error, the null hypothesis must be false (the alternative is true)
and yet you conclude to not reject the null hypothesis.
e. Significance level is the chosen level of significance that established the
probability of a making a Type I error. This is represented by alpha. The
power of the test is the ability of the hypothesis test to identify correctly a false
null hypothesis and reject it.
10.48 The p-value indicates the likelihood of getting the sample result at least as far
away from the hypothesized value as the one that was found, assuming that the
distribution is really centered on the null hypothesis. The smaller the p-value, the
stronger the evidence against the null hypothesis.
