3. ### Sample Mean and Standard Deviation affects results to support reject Null Hypothesis

Hi All, I'm pretty new to Hypothesis Testing and I've come across a question I'm not sure of and was hoping someone could explain it. Suppose we wish to test H0: µ = 15 , HA: µ ≠15. Which of the following possible sample results give the most evidence to support HA? And the options...
4. ### Hypothesis Testing

Can someone please explain this? How did that conclusion arrive? P(Type I error) = P(reject H0 | H0 is true) = P(X1 ≤ c, X2 ≤ c | N = 16) = cC2 / 16C2 = c(c-1)/240 What if it was P(Type I error) = P(reject H0 | H0 is true) = P((X1+X2)/2 ≤ c | N = 16) would the equation be different?
