Question

General question: If you do NOT have enough evidence to reject a null hypothesis, would a claim be denied or verified? Could you explain how this works?

Answer 1

Answer)

It depends on the claim

We have two hypothesis

Null hypothesis and alternate hypothesis

Null hypothesis takes the symbols like <=, >= and =

If the claim is less than equal to or greater than equal to or just equal to

Then our claim would be null hypothesis

And alternate hypothesis takes the symbols like, <, > or not equal to

If the claim is less than, more than or not equal to, then the claim would be alternate hypothesis

And if our claim is null hypothesis

And we fail to reject the null hypothesis, then we do have enough evidence to support the claim

And if our claim is alternate hypothesis and we fail to reject the null hypothesis, then we do not have enough evidence to support the claim.
