Slide 9-1
Learning Objectives
• Understand the logic of hypothesis testing,
and know how to establish null and alternate
hypotheses.
• Understand Type I and Type II errors.
• Use large samples to test hypotheses about
a single population mean and about a single
population proportion.
• Test hypotheses about a single population
mean using small samples when  is
unknown and the population is normally
distributed.

Method of Indirect Proof
X
Either X or Y is true but not both
Y
X
X is demonstrated not to be true
Y
Y is true by default

Slide 9-3
Hypothesis Testing
A process of testing hypotheses about
parameters by setting up null and
alternative hypotheses, gathering
sample data, computing statistics from
the samples, and using statistical
techniques to reach conclusions about
the hypotheses.

Slide 9-4
Steps in Testing Hypotheses
1. Establish hypotheses: state the null and

alternative hypotheses.
Determine the appropriate statistical test
and sampling distribution.
Specify the Type I error rate (
State the decision rule.
Gather sample data.
Calculate the value of the test statistic.
State the statistical conclusion.
Make a managerial decision.

Slide 9-5
Null and Alternative Hypotheses
• The Null and Alternative Hypotheses are
mutually exclusive. Only one of them can
be true.
• The Null and Alternative Hypotheses are
collectively exhaustive. They are stated to
include all possibilities. (An abbreviated
form of the null hypothesis is often used.)
• The Null Hypothesis is assumed to be true.
• The burden of proof falls on the Alternative
Hypothesis.

Slide 9-6
Null and Alternative
Hypotheses: Example
• A soft drink company is filling 12 oz.
cans with cola.
• The company hopes that the cans are
averaging 12 ounces.

Type I and Type II Errors
• Type I Error
– Rejecting a true null hypothesis
– The probability of committing a Type I error
is called , the level of significance.
• Type II Error
– Failing to reject a false null hypothesis
– The probability of committing a Type II
error is called .
– Power is the probability of rejecting a false
null hypothesis, and equal to 1- 
