AnswerExplanation
Corectanswer:
H0:μ=33;Ha:μ≠33
Letheparameterμ beusedtorepresenthemean.Thenulhypothesisisalways statedwithsomeform ofequality:equal(=),greaterthanorequalto(≥),orlessthan orequalto(≤).Therefore,inthiscase,thenulhypothesisH0 isμ=33.The alternativehypothesisiscontradictorytothenulhypothesis,soHa isμ≠33.
