... Because z does not fall in the critical region, we conclude that there is not sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis at a level of significance of .01. (b) Report the Pvalue of the test in (a). Answer. P (z > 2.04) = .5 − .4793 = .0207 (c) Explain what the Pvalue in (b) means. Answer. The ...

... induced more variability in M2 generation. Increase in mean values in M2 and M3 generations of plant yield might be due to elimination of plants and also due to genetic nature of changes induced after mutagenic treatments. The increase in mean value may also be due to recovery effect in the successi ...

In particular, we will use X to estimate the population mean, µ . If a single sample statistic is used to estimate a population parameter, it is called a point estim ...
