Chapter 12: Hypothesis Tests – Large Samples

537

Figure 12-11:

Display of the test statistic in relation to the

Rejection Region for

Example 12-5

Observe that the test statistic is located in the far right area of the rejection

region.

Note:

We can also use the

Large Sample Test for a Single Population

Mean

workbook to help with the computation for this example.

The output is given in

Figure 12-12

. It shows that the

P

-value = 0.0000 <

= 0.05 (5%) so the null hypothesis will also be rejected and one will have

the same conclusion as when the classical approach is used to test the

hypothesis.
