Suppose that measurements of cholesterol level in women in the U.S. population aged 21-40 is normally distributed with mean 51 mg/dL. It is desired to test if the cholesterol level among Asian immigrants is different from those in the general U.S. population. A study on a sample of 120 Asian women of age 21-40 yielded an average measurement of 51.91 with a standard deviation of 5. The appropriate formulation of the testing problem is. Ο Ho : μ < 51 ,Η Ho : μ = 51 ,Η : μ > 51 : μ + 51

Question
Suppose that measurements of cholesterol level in women in
the U.S. population aged 21-40 is normally distributed with
mean 51 mg/dL. It is desired to test if the cholesterol level
among Asian immigrants is different from those in the
general U.S. population. A study on a sample of 120 Asian
women of age 21-40 yielded an average measurement of
51.91 with a standard deviation of 5.
The appropriate formulation of the testing problem is.
Ho : μ < 51 ,Η : μ > 51
Ho = 51,H₁ : μ #51
μ
Ho : μ > 51 ,Η : μ < 51
