MATH 225N Week 8 Final Exam (Version 1)
Question 1
·
1/1 points
A fitness center claims that the mean amount of time that a person spends at the gym per visit is
33minutes. Identify the null hypothesis, H0, and the alternative hypothesis, Ha, in terms of the
parameter μ.
That is correct!
H0: μ≠33
; Ha: μ=3
3
H0: μ=33
; Ha: μ≠3
3
H0: μ≥33
; Ha: μ<3
3
H0: μ≤33
; Ha: μ>33
Answer Explanation
Correct answer:
H0: μ=33
; Ha: μ≠33
Let the parameter μbe used to represent the mean. The null hypothesis is always stated with
some form of equality: equal (= ), greater than or equal to (≥ ), or less than or equal to ( ≤).
H0is μ=33
Therefore, in this case, the null hypothesis . The alternative hypothesis is
contradictory to the null hypothesis, so Hais μ≠33.

Remember the forms of the hypothesis tests.
• Right-tailed: H0:
X≤X0, Ha:
X>X0.
• Left-tailed: H0:
X≥X0, Ha:
X<X0.
• Two-tailed: H0:
X=X0, Ha:
X≠X0.
So in this case, the right-tailed tests are:
• H0:
X≤7
