The solution to the Questions are
(a)
The alternate hypothesis demonstrates that there are two possible outcomes for the test.
(b)
Here we have
[tex]n_{1}=40,\\\\ \bar{x}_{1}=102,\sigma_{1}=5,n_{2}=50,\bar{x}_{2}=99,\sigma_{2}=6[/tex]
(b)
Here the test is two-tailed. So for [tex]\alpha =0.04[/tex], the critical values of the z-test are -2.05 and 2.05.
Decision rule: If z > 2.05 or z<-2.05, reject H0
(c)
Test statistics will be
[tex]z=\frac{(\bar{x}_{1}-\bar{x}_{2})-(\mu_{1}-\mu_{2})}{\sqrt{\frac{\sigma^{2}_{1}}{n_{1}}+\frac{\sigma^{2}_{2}}{n_{2}}}} \\\\\\z=\frac{(102-99)-(0)}{\sqrt{\frac{5^{2}}{40}+\frac{6^{2}}{50}}}[/tex]
z=2.59
(d)
The two-tailed nature of the test is shown by the alternative hypothesis.
(e)
The result of the test yields the following P-value: 0.0096
