committing an error in rejecting a null
hypothesis that is true is denoted by:
A. C.
B. D.
•5.  In the left – tailed test , the critical value of z
is:
A. C.
B. D.
Activity: (15 mins.)
• Make two or research sample problem about
the test of hypothesis concerning mean of the
population.
• One must be one tailed test and the other is
two tailed test.
• When can we say that the test
is directional and non –
directional?
• Why is it necessary to
determine whether the test is
directional or non directional?
••  Null
hypothesis : a statement that
there is no difference between a
parameter and a specific value, or that
there is no difference between two
parameters. 
•Alternative
  Hypothesis : is a statement
that there is a difference between a
parameter and a specific value, or that
there is a difference between two
parameter.
Formulates null and alternative
hypotheses
• In formulating null and alternative
hypotheses we must consider first if it is
directional or non – directional
• Previously, we have this table, notations for the
null and alternative hypothesis
•Music
  and Studies
• A teacher wants to know if listening to popular music
affects performance of pupils. A class of 50 grade 11
students was used to experiment. The mean score was 83
and the standard deviation is 5. A previous study revealed
that and the standard deviation State the null and
alternative hypotheses in words and symbols.
•Solution:
  As you observed the test is non – directional.
In words, the hypotheses are:
: The sample comes from a population whose mean is 82.
: The sample comes from a population whose mean is not
equal to 82.
In symbols, , ,
•Solution:
  As you observed the test is non – directional.
In words, the hypotheses are:
: The sample comes from a population whose mean is 82.
: The sample comes from a population whose mean is not
equal to 82.
In symbols, , ,
•Organic
  Fertilizers
• A farmer believes that using organic fertilizers on his
plants will yield greater income. His average income from
the past was ₱200 000.00 per year. State the null and
alternative hypotheses.
• 200 000
• 200 000
Make two sample problem about the
mean (one tailed and two tailed test)
then identify the null and alternative
hypotheses.
• Write the null and alternative
hypothesis in words and in symbols
for each of the following
