### Null Hypotheses ### Null Hypotheses
A statement about a parameter, a statement of equality. The chance of getting an *x* is *y*%.
An alternative hypothesis, or a research hypotheses, is what the researcher is out to prove. A statement of inequality (<, >, $\ne$).

| Null Hypothesis | This is a statement about a *parameter* | | Null Hypothesis | This is a statement about a *parameter* |
| Alternative/Research Hypothesis | | | Alternative/Research Hypothesis | What the researcher is out to prove, a statement of inequality. (Less than, greater than, not equal to). |
| One-tailed test | Use when the alternative hypothesis says that the % of 1s is less than or greater than expected. It's one sided | | One-tailed test | Use when the alternative hypothesis says that the % of 1s is less than or greater than expected. It's one sided |
| Two tailed test | When something is not equal to the expected. |
## c tests for averages ## P Value
The chance of observing at least a sample statistic, or something more extreme, if the null hypothesis is true.
If the p-value is less than 5%, reject the null hypothesis.
If the p-value is greater than 5%, fail to reject the null hypothesis.
