Which of the following statements about hypothesis testing are true? There may be more than one correct statement; check all that are true. a) The most common test in one sample problems is of the null hypothesis: Ho: :μ=σ b) If the null hypothesis is true, we cannot make a type I error. c) The most important contribution of hypothesis testing is that it allows us to use known values of parameters to estimate unknown values of their statistical estimators. d) If a null hypothesis is rejected at the 0.05 significance level, it would also be rejected at the 0.10 significance level.

Question
Which of the following statements about hypothesis testing are true? There may be
more than one correct statement; check all that are true.
a) The most common test in one sample problems is of the null hypothesis:
Ho : μ = σ
b) If the null hypothesis is true, we cannot make a type I error.
c) The most important contribution of hypothesis testing is that it allows us to
use known values of parameters to estimate unknown values of their
statistical estimators.
d) If a null hypothesis is rejected at the 0.05 significance level, it would also be
rejected at the 0.10 significance level.
