How is the null hypothesis for a correlation different than a null hypothesis for a t-test?
Scenario B: The nonprofit recently engaged in a campaign to encourage elementary school
children to read more. A previous study found that children in your community read in their
free time for 48 minutes per day on average. You would like to find out whether the time
spent reading among elementary school students increased after the campaign.
You recently obtained a job with a sports analytics firm, and your first assignment is to write a
report evaluating early evidence behind predictions for the 2019-20 NBA season. You will use
your knowledge of hypothesis testing to assess the predictions.
1. When conducting a hypothesis test for the population mean, you will not know the
population standard deviation, so you will have to use the sample standard deviation
instead. How will this affect the process?
