Exercise · ZW-P-VALUE-002 · ★☆☆ Basic
Right-tailed test with \(z=2.0\). What is the p-value?
Choose one option.
Show answer
- D. \(0.0228\)
Explanation
\(p=1-\Phi(2.0)=1-0.9772=0.0228\). The value \(0.0455\) belongs to the two-sided test.
Review the concept: p-value
The \(p\)-value is the probability \(P\), computed assuming the null hypothesis \(H_0\) is true, of obtaining a result at least as extreme as the one observed.
\[p=P\big(\text{result at least as extreme}\mid H_0\big)\]
