Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Higher the value of computed t statistic,
A
Larger would be the size of sample.
B
Greater would be the probability of rejecting the null hypothesis.
C
Greater would be the probability of accepting the null hypothesis.
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -When we increase the sample size, decrease the standard error, or increase the difference between the sample statistic and hypothesized parameter, the p value decreases, thus making it more likely that we reject the null hypothesis.

Detailed explanation-2: -If the t-statistic value is greater than the t-critical, meaning that it is beyond it on the x-axis (a blue x), then the null hypothesis is rejected and the alternate hypothesis is accepted.
