\n" ); document.write( "Hi,
\n" ); document.write( "The critical regions appropriate to be used to test the null hypothesis will
\n" ); document.write( "depend on the parameters set by Ho & Ha. In general:
\n" ); document.write( " a a/2 crtical regions
\n" ); document.write( "90% 10 5% z <-1.645 z >+1.645
\n" ); document.write( "95% 5 2.50% z <-1.96 z >+1.96
\n" ); document.write( "98% 2 1% z <-2.33 z >+2.33
\n" ); document.write( "99% 2 0.50% z<-2.575 z >+2.575
\n" ); document.write( "For example when testing the Ho, the following would be used and will result
\n" ); document.write( "in a negative or positive number depending on the value of X used in the
\n" ); document.write( "test statistic = \"%28X+-+mu%29%2F%28sigma%2Fsqrt%28n%29%29\" \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(A) Ho: u ≥ 81 and Ha: u <81, a = 0.05
\n" ); document.write( "this will result in a negative test statistic as the test value used for X < u
\n" ); document.write( "therefore, the critical region would be z < -1.96\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(B) Ho: u= 45 and Ha: u<45 or>45, a = 0.10
\n" ); document.write( "The result for a test statistic here may be neg or positive depending on test value of X used
\n" ); document.write( "therefore, the critical regions would be z< -1.645 or z > +1.64\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(C)Ho: u ≤ 88, a = 0.01
\n" ); document.write( "The result for this test statistic will be positve because test value used for X > u
\n" ); document.write( "therefore, the critical regions would be z > +2.33
\n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps to clear this up.\r
