  1. 5. Likelihood of accuracy. Can be changed by expanding or decreasing sample size.
  2. 7. Two events are independent when the occurrence of one does not affect the probability of the occurrence of the other.
  3. 12. state plan do conclude
  4. 13. if we reject the null hypothesis when it is in fact true
  5. 14. The normal distribution refers to a family of continuous probability distributions described by the normal equation.
  6. 16. states that the parameter is different from the null hypothesis value
  7. 17. The probability, computed assuming Ho is true, that the statistic (such as p-hat or x-bar) would take a value as extreme as or more extreme than the one actually observed, in the direction specified by Ha.
  8. 18. Level of confidence that the results found within a study are applicable to the population and not due to chance.
  9. 19. we fail to reject the null hypothesis when the alternative hypothesis is true

  1. 1. Degree to which the sample is expected to deviate from the population
  2. 2. the difference between two numbers on the scale
  3. 3. if the p-value is smaller than the alpha.
  4. 4. States that a parameter is larger than the null hypothesis value or if it states that the parameter is smaller than the null value.
  5. 6. the claim we seek evidence for
  6. 8. A statistical property of a large family of distributions, including the Student's t-distribution.
