Check all that apply as more than one option may be correct.When the p-value is less than the significance level αWhen the test statistic is more extreme than the critical valueWhen the confidence interval for a sample statistic does not capture the Null hypothesised value.When the power of a test is 80% or higher.1 points QUESTION 6Match the research question, research hypothesis and statistical hypotheses with the correct example. – A.

Alternate HypothesisA.The population mean 100m running time will reduce after drinking a caffeinated sports drink.B.People who drink caffeinated sports will demonstrate improved sport performance.C.Do caffeinated sports drinks improve sport performance?D.The population mean 100m running time will not change after drinking a caffeinated sports drink.1 points QUESTION 7When the Null hypothesis is rejected, which of the following statements is true?The results prove the Alternative hypothesis is trueThe results support the Alternative hypothesisThe results prove the Null hypothesis is falseThere is only a 5% chance that a Type I error has occurred.1 points QUESTION 8When a p-value is greater than the significance level α, e.g. 0.05, what should the decision be?to reject the Null hypothesisto accept the Alternate hypothesisto fail to reject the Null hypothesisto accept the Null hypothesis1 points QUESTION 9The results of a study are found to be statistically significant. What does this mean?The Alternate hypothesis was trueThe Null hypothesis was trueThat the p-value was less than the significance levelThe study had true scientific value1 points QUESTION 10One-sample Hypothesis TestingThe following questions will help develop your understanding of one-sample hypothesis testing.The Times.csv dataset (see Data Repository) contains the 100 meter running times (seconds) of a random sample of 15 people. What is the sample’s mean 100m running time? (Round answer to two decimal places)1 points QUESTION 11What is the sample’s standard deviation for 100m running time? (Round to two decimal places)1 points QUESTION 12The population mean 100m running time is believed to be 14 seconds. Assuming running times are normally distributed in the population, does this sample provide evidence that the population mean is not 14 seconds?
