- perform two non-parametric tests. For each hypothesis test make sure to report the following steps: Identify why you choose to perform the statistical test (Sign test, Wilcoxon test, Kruskal-Wallis test). Identify the null hypothesis, Ho, and the alternative hypothesis, Ha. Determine whether the hypothesis test is left-tailed, right-tailed, or two-tailed. Find the critical value(s) and identify the rejection region(s). Find the appropriate standardized test statistic. If convenient, use technology. Decide whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis. Interpret the decision in the context of the original claim. 1) A convenience store owner believes that the median number of lottery tickets sold per day is 44.
