A random sample of 25 college males was obtained and each was asked to report their actual height and what they wished as their ideal height. A 95% confidence interval for µd = average difference between their ideal and actual heights was 0.8" to 2.2". Based on this interval, which one of the null hypotheses below (versus a two-sided alternative) can be rejected?

Question
(a)A random sample of 25 college males was obtained and each was asked to report their actual height and what they wished as their ideal height. A 95% confidence interval for µd = average difference between their ideal and actual heights was 0.8" to 2.2". Based on this interval, which one of the null hypotheses below (versus a two-sided alternative) can be rejected? 
 
 
 
all the above
 
 
 
c. H0: µd = 1.5
 
 
 
H0: µd = 0.5
 
 
 
b. H0: µd = 1.0
 
 
 
H0: µd = 2.0
 
 
(b)Which of the following is a correct form of an alternate hypothesis for paired data? 
 
 
 
H1: μd = p
 
 
 
H1: μ1 ≠ μ2
 
 
 
H1: μd > 0
 
 
 
H1: μ1 = μ2
 
(C)Which of the following is always the null hypothesis for two sample proportions? 
 
 
d. H0: p1 = 3
 
 
 
H0: p1 < μ2
 
 
 
H0: p1 ≠ p2
 
 
 
H0: p1 = p2
