You can put this solution on YOUR website! If alpha was .01 and the test statistic was 1.8, should you reject the null hypothesis?
p-value = P(z > 1.8) = 0.0359
Since the p-value is greater than 1%, fail to reject Ho.
--------------------------------------
If alpha was .05, and the test statistic was 1.6,
you should
p-value = 0.0550
1. accept the alternative hypothesis
2. reject the alternative hypohtesis
3. accept the null
4. reject the null
5. not reject the null
----
not reject Ho.
