____They conclude that the solar panel is effective when it is actually effective
____They conclude that the solar panel is effective when it is not actually effective.
Activity 5
Directions: Cite three (3) situations in your community where you can apply hypothesis testing. Then, just choose one
situation and: (Write your answer in the space provided)
1. create a problem statement;
2. formulate the null and alternative hypothesis;
3. select the level of significance and sketch the rejection region; and
4. state the possible Type I and Type II errors.
 MODULE 2: IDENTIFYING PARAMETER TO BE TESTED GIVEN A REAL LIFE PROBLEM
II. Read Module 2: Identifying Parameter to be Tested Given a Real Life Problem and answer the following activities.
Activity 1. Translate It.
Directions: Determine the notation of the given parameter, inequality symbol, or value of the parameter.
Notation Symbols
Parameter 2 Value
( μ , σ , p , σ ) ( ¿ , ≠ ,<,>, ≤ ,≥ )
1. Average salary of Polytechnic University of the Philippines (PUP)
graduates is at most ₱342,000.
2. The standard deviation of adults riding a bus is 5.1.
3. Filipino employers offer a mean of 25 days of paid vacation for sick
leave
4. Survival rate of breast cancer in the Philippines is below 45%.
5. Mean number of vehicles in households is at least 1.9 personal
vehicles.

Activity 2. What is Your Parameter?

Directions: Determine the parameter to be tested in each situation by writing your answer on the space provided.
Translate it into symbols.
1. The television habits of children were observed and found out that the standard deviation is 12.4 hours per week.

2. A newspaper article stated that students in the country take an average of 4 years to finish their undergraduate
degrees. Suppose that you believe the mean time is longer, you conducted survey on 49 students. The result obtained a
sample mean of 5 with a sample standard deviation of 1.2.

3. According to DOLE, registered nurses in government earned an average monthly salary of ₱9,700. For that same year,
a survey was conducted on41 registered nurses to determine if the mean salary is higher than the previous survey. The
sample average was ₱10,000 with a sample standard deviation of ₱2,500.

4. Records of the Department of Health (DOH) revealed that 14.7% of the country's Filipino smokers have maintained
their habit of smoking.

Activity 3.

From the real-life situations cited in activity 4 in Module 1. Identify the parameter to be tested in each situation.
