The union decides to do a statistical test to see if the value has indeed decreased. The union chooses a random sample of this year's wages, computes the mean of the sample to be $7.87, and computes the standard deviation of the sample to be $1.10. Based on this information, complete the parts below. (a) What are the null hypothesis H, and the alternative hypothesis H, that should be used for the test? u x H:0 ロ<ロ OSO ロロ D H: DO D=0 (b) Suppose that the union decides not to reject the null hypothesis. What sort of error might it be making? Choose one) v Х $ ? (C) Suppose the true mean hourly wage for foodservice workers in the U.S. this year is $8.14. Fill in the blanks to describe a Type I error. the hypothesis that u is (Choose one) V (Choose one) A Type I error would be (Choose one) when, in fact, u is (Choose one)
