NULL HYPOTHESIS
ALTERNATIVE HYPOTHESIS
Alternative hypothesis is a statement denoted by H 1, is a statement that states
that there is a difference, an effect, change, relationship between a parameter and a
specific value, the independent variable has an effect on the dependent variable, or
something happened.
LEVEL OF SIGNIFICANCE
Hence, the
critical value=μ+ ( z α ) ( σ X )
¿ 10+ ( 1.645 ) ( 0.038 … )
¿ 10+0.0624
¿ 10.0624
The critical region is illustrated on the next page. It is the darken area right side of
10.0624.

critical value=μ− z α ( σ X ) and critical value=μ+ z α ( σ X )
