Chapter 9 - Hypothesis testing. After mastering the material in this chapter, you will be able to: Set Up appropriate null and alternative hypotheses, describe Type I and Type II errors and their probabilities, use critical values and p-values to perform a z test about a population mean when s is known,. | Chapter 9 Hypothesis Testing Copyright © 2014 by The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.

Table 9- Typical Values Usually set to a low value So there is a small chance of rejecting a true .
