Question
Which of the following statements is true about alternative hypothesis on a population proportion?*It is represented by Ha.It is used as a basis to determine the location of the extreme values.It is the competing claim that the parameter is equal to a specific value.It is a claim that the proportion is equal to the hypothesized proportion.
Solution
The statement that is true about the alternative hypothesis on a population proportion is: "It is represented by Ha."
The alternative hypothesis, often denoted by Ha, is a statement that directly contradicts the null hypothesis by stating that the actual value of a population parameter is less than, greater than, or not equal to the value stated in the null hypothesis.
The other statements are not entirely correct. The alternative hypothesis is not used as a basis to determine the location of extreme values. It is also not a claim that the parameter is equal to a specific value - that's usually the null hypothesis. Lastly, it is not a claim that the proportion is equal to the hypothesized proportion - again, that's typically the null hypothesis.
