Testing the hypothesis:
1st concept is hypothesis and acceptance
there are two kind of errors and two decisions , thus
- Hypothesis true and test accepts.
- Hypothesis true and test rejects.
- Hypothesis false and test accepts.
- Hypothesis false and test rejects.
there are two types of hypothesis:
- Null hypothesis H⁰
- Alternative hypothesis H¹
first null hypothesis is to be tested

important terms:
- prob.(reject if h⁰ true) = alpha i.e producer’s risk
- prob.(accept if h⁰ false) = beta i.e consumer’s risk
Next concept is critical region and level of significance
rejection of H⁰ is critical region and the prob. alpha that any value of the statics belongs to critical region is level of significance.
usually level of significance is 5 percent and 1 percent.
Based on criticality, the test can be left tailed , right tailed or two tailed.
Now to test a hypothesis , we will need critical values /significant values. These are the value between accepted and critical region. This is different at 1 , 2 , 5 , 10 percent level of significance.
Large population
The hypothesis may be tested for whole population, for population mean , stsndard deviations and even difference between means and standard deviations.
Small population
The degree of freedom is to be analysed in case of small population. if n is no. of observations, k is no. of independent constraints than n-k is degree of freedom
t distribution test , paired t test to find difference between two means.
used to verify equality of two variances.
next os chi square test used to test goodness of fit
this is for 1st unit next is
