1. To say that the null hypothesis is rejected does not necessarily mean it is false.
2. In a practical situation, the null hypothesis, alternative hypothesis, and level of rejection should be specified before the experimentation.
3. The probability of choosing a random sample of 3 persons in which the first 2 say "yes" and the last person says "no" from a population in which P(yes) ¼ 0.7 is (0.7)(0.7)(0.3).
4. If the experimental hypothesis is true, chance does not enter into the outcome of the experiment.
5. The alternative hypothesis is often the experimental hypothesis.
6. A decision made on the basis of a statistical procedure will always be correct.
7. The probability of choosing a random sample of 3 persons in which exactly 2 say "yes" from a population with P(yes) ¼ 0.6 is (0.6)(0.6)(0.4).
