Let’s Learn
This module was designed and written to help you understand the basic
concepts of hypothesis testing. Each step for hypothesis testing was given emphasis
by providing a separate lesson for each. Only one set of examples was used all
throughout the lessons to clearly show the process of hypothesis testing.

(a) the population variance is assumed to be known
(b) the population variance is assumed to be unknown
(c) the Central Limit Theorem is to be used, and
(d) the critical value is to be known.

For no. 7-8
The SSG president claims that the average number of hours the
students study their lessons is more than 30 hours per week. If 30 students
are surveyed and their average is 32 hours per week with standard deviation
of 4 hours, is there sufficient evidence to reject the SSG president’s claim at
the 𝛼 = 0.05 level of significance?

following given? hypothesis test on population mean; 𝛼 = 0.05; one-

Let’s Recall
Let’s Explore
Activity 1
Study the figures below. Describe the location of the shaded part of the normal
curve.
Let’s Elaborate
Rejection Region
The shaded regions in Activity 1 is/are called the rejection region.
In a given problem, the level of significance and the type of test (one-tailed or
two-tailed) will set the rejection region (critical region) of the null hypothesis.
5
Let us look at the illustration below.
0.95
Rejection Region
The rejection region is split into two equal areas placed in each tail of the
distribution.
0.95
Acceptance Region
0.05
Rejection Region
The rejection region lies entirely in the right end of the distribution.
0.95
0.05 Acceptance Region
Rejection Region
The rejection region lies entirely on the left end of the distribution.
a. Since the alternative hypothesis for the problem is 𝜇 ≠ 10,000.00, then it is a two-
tailed test.
b. The level of significance (𝛼) is 0.05
To identify the appropriate rejection region, we can refer to the 𝑧-table by
considering the type of test (one-tailed or two –tailed) and the level of significance.
But since we usually use 0.05 and 0.01 as level of significance, we could just refer
to this table below.
One-tailed Two-tailed
𝛼 = 0.05 𝑧 > 1.645 (𝑜𝑟 𝑧 < −1.645) 𝑧 < −1.96 𝑜𝑟 𝑧 > 1.96
𝛼 = 0.01 𝑧 > 2.33 (𝑜𝑟 𝑧 < −2.33) 𝑧 < −2.575 𝑜𝑟 𝑧 > 2.575
2. Mrs. Patata claims that its potato chips contain less than 150 mg of salt per pack.
But a random sample of 130 packs yielded an average salt content of 145 mg
with standard deviation of 25 mg. Use 0.01 level of significance to test the null
hypothesis 𝜇 = 150 against the alternative 𝜇 < 150.
a. Since the alternative hypothesis for the problem is 𝜇 < 150, then it is a one-tailed
test (left).
b. The level of significance (𝛼) is 0.01.
The rejection region for this example is 𝑧 < −2.33.
3. A certain brand of coffee is advertised to have a net weight of 250 grams. If the net
weights of a random of 8 packs are 252, 251, 253, 249, 248, 251, 254, and 249,
can it be concluded that the average net weight of the packs is greater than the
advertised amount? Use 𝛼 = 0.05.
a. Since the alternative hypothesis for the situation is 𝜇 > 250, then it is a one-tailed
test (right).
b. the level of significance is 0.05.
In this problem, we need to use the t-table because the applicable test statistic
is t-test. Notice that the number of samples is only 8 and the population standard
deviation is not given. Aside from the type of test (one-tailed or two-tailed) and the
level of significance, we also need to consider the degrees of freedom to properly
identify the critical value in the 𝑡-table. The formula for degrees of freedom is 𝑛-1,
where n is the number of samples.
7
Why do we subtract 1 from the number of samples to get the degrees of freedom?
Degrees of Freedom is the number of values that are free to vary in a data set.
Example, if you were asked to pick a set of three numbers with mean of 5, there
are many possibilities: 8, 2, 5 or 7, 3, 5, or 6, 4, 5 and so on. We must notice that
once you have chosen the first two numbers, you cannot choose the third item in
the set. The only number that are free to vary are the first two.
The rejection region in this situation (refer on the 𝑡-table) is 𝑡 > 1.895

Activity 2
Directions: For each of the following, sketch the normal curve and indicate the
location of the rejection region by determining the critical value.
3. Hypothesis test on population mean; 𝛼 = 0.01; one-tailed test (left); 𝑛 = 20; 𝑠 = 3.5
5. Hypothesis test on population mean; 𝛼 = 0.01; one tailed test (right); 𝑛 = 189; 𝜎 =

Let’s Remember
1. To identify the rejection region, we need to consider the type of test (whether
one-tailed or two-tailed) and the significance level.
2. Degrees of Freedom is the number of values that are free to vary in a data set.
It is needed to identify the rejection region in the t-table.
Let’s Apply
1. Santos Farm takes pride in its poultry produce and claims that each dressed
chicken they sell provides 180 grams of protein. Test this claim at 0.01 level of
significance based on a random sample of 70 dressed chickens that yielded an
average of 176 grams of protein with sample standard deviation of 15 grams.
2. MLC claims that students who avail their services get an average score of 385 on
scholastic aptitude test. The scores of random samples of 10 students were
recorded as follows: 350, 440, 350, 375, 400, 450, 475, 320, 300, 375. Use the
level of significance 0.01 to test whether the average of 385 is too high to claim.
Let’s Evaluate
Directions: Read each question carefully. Encircle the letter of the correct answer.
