MCQs Hypothesis Testing 1

1. The critical value of a test statistic is determined from

2. Herbicide A has been used for years in order to kill a particular type of weed. An experiment is to be conducted in order to see whether a new herbicide, Herbicide B, is more effective than Herbicide A. Herbicide A  will continue to be used unless there is sufficient evidence that Herbicide B is more effective. The alternative hypothesis in this problem is
