55. If a test statistic falls in the critical region the null hypothesis is _______________. a) Rejected b) Not Rejected c) It depends d) accepted

Respuesta :

Answer:

Option a) Rejected              

Step-by-step explanation:

We define critical region as:

  • It is also known as the rejection region.
  • It is the region where the null hypothesis is rejected.
  • Thus, if our calculated test statistic lies in the critical region, we fail to accept the null hypothesis and reject it.
  • For right tailed test: The critical region is the values greater than the critical value.
  • For left tailed test: The critical region is the values less than the critical value.
  • The critical region for two tailed test is the value apart from the range of critical values.

Thus,

If a test statistic falls in the critical region the null hypothesis is rejected.
