a. Suppose that you decide to use a two-sided alternative hypothesis. What additional values for the parameter
Question:
a. Suppose that you decide to use a two-sided alternative hypothesis. What additional values for the parameter will now be part of the alternative?
b. Conjecture how, if at all, the p-value for the two-sided alternative will change compared to that reported in Exercise 1.4.19, part (c) for the one-sided alternative hypothesis.Explain your choice. Increase Stay the same Decrease
c. Use an applet to fi nd and report the p-value for the two sided alternative. Did the p-value behave as you had conjectured in (b)?
d. Complete the following: A p-value corresponding to a one-sided alternative hypothesis provides ___________ (weaker/the same/stronger) evidence against the null hypothesis, compared to a p-value calculated from the same data, but corresponding to a two-sided alternative hypothesis.
