1. What is the Null Hypothesis?
2. How to State the Null Hypothesis
Example
Not so long ago, people believed that the world was flat.
Step 1: Figure out the hypothesis from the problem. The hypothesis is usually hidden in a word problem, and is sometimes a
statement of what you expect to happen in the experiment.
The hypothesis in the above question is “I expect the average recovery period to be greater than 8.2 weeks.”
Step 2: Convert the hypothesis to math. Remember that the average is sometimes written as μ.
H1: μ > 8.2
Broken down into (somewhat) English, that’s H1 (The hypothesis): μ (the average) > (is greater than) 8.2
Step 3: State what will happen if the hypothesis doesn’t come true. If the recovery time isn’t greater than 8.2 weeks, there are only two
possibilities, that the recovery time is equal to 8.2 weeks or less than 8.2 weeks.
H0: μ ≤ 8.2
Broken down again into English, that’s H0 (The null hypothesis): μ (the average) ≤ (is less than or equal to) 8.2
