## Hypothesis Testing Examples

### Part (i)

**Problem Statement:**  
The chance of developing breast cancer is under 11% for women.

**Hypotheses Options:**
- \( H_0: \mu = 11, \quad H_a: \mu < 11 \)
- \( H_0: \mu = 11, \quad H_a: \mu \geq 11 \)
- \( H_0: \mu = 0.11, \quad H_a: \mu < 0.11 \)
- \( H_0: p = 0.11, \quad H_a: p < 0.11 \)
- \( H_0: \mu < 11, \quad H_a: \mu \geq 11 \)
- \( H_0: p \geq 0.11, \quad H_a: p < 0.11 \)
- \( H_0: p < 0.11, \quad H_a: p \geq 0.11 \)
- \( H_0: p < 0.11, \quad H_a: p \geq 0.11 \) (Selected and marked incorrect)

**Explanation:**  
The statement correctly identifies that the problem is considering a population proportion (\( p \)), not a population mean (\( \mu \)). Therefore, the correct null and alternative hypotheses should involve \( p \).

### Part (j)

**Problem Statement:**  
Private universities' mean tuition cost is more than $20,000 per year.

**Hypotheses Options:**
- \( H_0: \mu = 20,000, \quad H_a: \mu \neq 20,000 \)
- \( H_0: \mu > 20,000, \quad H_a: \mu \leq 20,000 \)
- \( H_0: \mu \leq 20,000, \quad H_a: \mu > 20,000 \)
- \( H_0: p = 20,000, \quad H_a: p \neq 20,000 \)
- \( H_0: p = 20,000, \quad H_a: p > 20,000 \)
- \( H_0: \mu \leq 20,000, \quad H_a: \
