The rejection region for testing H0: μ = 100 vs.H1: μ ≠ 100,at the 0.05 level of significance is:

A) | z | < 0.95
B) | z | > 1.96
C) z > 1.65
D) z < 2.33

Rejection Region

In hypothesis testing, the range of values for which the null hypothesis is considered unlikely and thus rejected.

Level Of Significance

A threshold in hypothesis testing that determines the probability at which the null hypothesis is rejected, commonly denoted by alpha (α).

Null Hypothesis

A statement of no effect or no difference, tested against an alternative hypothesis in statistical analysis.

  • Pinpoint the zones for rejection and crucial statistics for diverse significance levels.

Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Since the alternative hypothesis is two-sided (μ ≠ 100), we need to use a two-tailed test. At the 0.05 level of significance, the critical values for a two-tailed test are ±1.96. Therefore, the rejection region for the test is |z| > 1.96.
