Statistics and Probability: Hypothesis Testing Exercises, Quizzes of Mathematics

Descriptive StatisticsHypothesis TestingInferential StatisticsStatistical Inference

Exercises on hypothesis testing in statistics and probability. Students are required to state the null and alternative hypotheses for given statements, determine if one-tailed or two-tailed tests are appropriate, and illustrate the rejection region for given critical values. Topics covered include testing mean differences, standard deviations, and proportions.
