Make sure you do all 4 steps of the hypothesis test!
1. Hypotheses
2. Conditions
3. Math
4. Conclusion
For your conclusions, use the following writing template:
Since the p-value of (p-value) is lower/higher than the (alpha level) % significance level, we will reject/fail to reject the null hypothesis. There is/is not significant evidence to conclude (describe the alternative hypothesis in words, in context) based on the given sample.
Here's an example based on the "explosives" problem in our homework (quiz C):
Since the p-value of 0.126 is higher than the 20% significance/alpha level, we will fail to reject the null hypothesis. There is not evidence to suggest that the device is effective in detecting explosives, based on this sample.
