Detailed explanation-1: -Always write the alternative hypothesis, typically denoted with Ha or H1, using less than, greater than, or not equals symbols, i.e., (≠, >, or <). If we reject the null hypothesis, then we can assume there is enough evidence to support the alternative hypothesis. Never state that a claim is proven true or false.
Detailed explanation-2: -H a: The alternative hypothesis: It is a claim about the population that is contradictory to H 0 and what we conclude when we reject H 0. Since the null and alternative hypotheses are contradictory, you must examine evidence to decide if you have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis or not.
Detailed explanation-3: -The alternative hypothesis, H1 or Ha, is a statistical proposition stating that there is a significant difference between a hypothesized value of a population parameter and its estimated value. When the null hypothesis is tested, a decision is either correct or incorrect.
