To test the hypothesis that eating fish makes one smarter, a random sample of 12 persons take a fish oil supplement for one year and then are given an IQ test. Here are the results: 116        111        101        120        99           94           106        115        107        101        110        92 Your null hypothesis is  HA: μ < 100 (no effect -- eating fish does not help increase the mean IQ)  H0: μ = 100 (no effect -- eating fish does not help increase the mean IQ)  HA: μ > 100 (no effect -- eating fish does not help increase the mean IQ)  H0: μ = 100 (have effect -- eating fish helps increase the mean IQ)

To test the hypothesis that eating fish makes one smarter, a random sample of 12

persons take a fish oil supplement for one year and then are given an IQ test. Here are the results:

116        111        101        120        99           94           106        115        107        101        110        92

Your null hypothesis is

 HA: μ < 100 (no effect -- eating fish does not help increase the mean IQ)

 H0: μ = 100 (no effect -- eating fish does not help increase the mean IQ)

 HA: μ > 100 (no effect -- eating fish does not help increase the mean IQ)

 H0: μ = 100 (have effect -- eating fish helps increase the mean IQ)
