| 6623483554 | confidence level | In the long run, about ____% of intervals calculated from samples of the same size from the same population will capture the true ______________________________________. | 13 | |
| 6623486519 | p-value | If the null is true (in context), the probability of obtaining results at least as extreme as the sample is _________ (p-value). | 14 | |
| 6623490813 | if the p-value is less than alpha, | we reject the null and accept the alternative. There is evidence of the alternative (in context). | 15 | |
| 6623493268 | if the p-value is greater than alpha, | we fail to reject the null and fail to accept the alternative. There is no evidence of the alternative (in context). | 16 | |
