    This document discusses how to draw conclusions about a population mean based on a test statistic value and critical region. It provides examples of using z-tests and t-tests to either reject the null hypothesis or fail to reject it by comparing the computed test statistic to the critical value. Specifically, it shows that for a two-tailed test the negative of the test statistic is disregarded, and in a left-tailed test failing to reject the null hypothesis if the test statistic is greater than the critical value.

    t- Critical Value
    z-test t-test

    Negative of the computed z and t is disregarded when


    comparing it to the critical value of z and t if the hypothesis
    is two-tailed test.
    Example 1:
    Compute for its value given the following information. Use a = 0.05.
    Interpret the result.

    The computed z-value is 1.875 which


    is greater than the critical value of 1.
    645. Therefore, we reject the null
    hypothesis and support the alternative
    hypothesis.
    Example 2:
    Compute for its value given the following information. Use a = 0.01.
    Interpret the result.

    The computed t-value is greater than


    the t-critical value at a=0.01. Since
    we have a left-tailed test, our
    conclusion is that we fail to reject the
    null hypothesis.
    Thank
    You!!!
