Tyesha found that the z-statistic was 2.1 and that the critical z-values were -1.96 and 1.96. which of the following is a valid conclusion based on these results?

one can reject the null hypothesis.
one can reject the alternate hypothesis.
one can accept the null hypothesis.
one cannot accept or reject the null hypothesis.

One can reject the null hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a 2-sided hypothesis test since we have 2 critical values; -1.96 and 1.96. The test is usually to compute the test statistic then reject the null hypothesis if the test statistic lies in the critical/rejection region.

In our case, we reject the null hypothesis since 2.1 lies to the right of 1.96 which forms a part of the critical region

first, we define the variables:

x: number of years after 1950

f (x): amount of vinyl sold.

then, with the variables defined, we have:

68594 vinyl records were sold in 1958 > f (8) = 68594

91299 vinyl records were sold in 1961 > f (11) = 91299

38720 vinyl records were sold in 1952 > f (2) = 38720

161743 vinyl records were sold in 1967 > f (17) = 161743
