    Question

    The value of a variable X was measured in 6 subjects with the following results: 20, 27, 18, 24, 15, 22. When we use a one-sample T test the null hypothesis that μ = 24, at a two-sided risk of 5%, the conclusion should be:


    1. TRUE: The result is not significant, H0 is not rejected
    2. FALSE: The result is significant, H0 is not rejected
    3. FALSE: The result is not significant, H0 is rejected
    4. FALSE: The result is significant, H0 is rejected

    1. The result is not significant, H0 is not rejected: Correct
    2. The result is significant, H0 is not rejected: Incorrect
    3. The result is not significant, H0 is rejected: Incorrect
    4. The result is significant, H0 is rejected: Incorrect
