Question

State the null and alternative hypothesis: The average score of 40 high school basketball games is less than 26

Answer 1

Answer:

$H_o:\mu = 26$

$H_a:\mu < 26$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Average score is less than 26

Required

Determine the null and alternate hypothesis

Since the average is said to be less than 26; that represents the alternate hypothesis.

The null hypothesis will be:

$Average = 26$

So, we have:

$H_o:\mu = 26$

And the alternate hypothesis

$H_a:\mu < 26$
