What is wrong with these hypotheses?
H0: x bar = 23
Ha: x bar > 23
H0 : = 23
Ha : > 23
Case 1: If we use = 23 as a null hypothesis then the alternative hypothesis must show 23 . This is a two tailed test . That is we have to consider both < 23 and > 23 .
Case 2: If we use > 23 as a alternative hypothesis then we must write null hypothesis as H0 : 23 . This is one tail test .
