One survey has been done on the MIIT campus to determine the heights of female students. The average height of the students was stated as 160cm. To check whether this average is correct, you formulate a statistical test. Define your null and alternate hypotheses.a.H0: µ ≥ 160cm  and H1: µ < 160cmb.H0: µ = 160cm  and H1: µ ≠ 160cmc.H0: µ = 160cm  and H1: µ > 160cmd.H0: µ = 160cm  and H1: µ < 160cm

Solution

Para formular una prueba estadística para verificar si el promedio de altura de las estudiantes es correcto, primero definimos las hipótesis nula y alternativa. Dado que queremos comprobar si el promedio es efectivamente 160 cm, la hipótesis nula (H0) debería establecer que el promedio es 160 cm, y la hipótesis alternativa (H1) debería reflejar cualquier desviación de este promedio.

La opción correcta es:

b. H0: µ = 160cm y H1: µ ≠ 160cm
