3] 22.76
4] 9.81
5] 5.16
6] -0.88
7] 16.45
Q1] The calculated z-value is 1.66, which is less than tabulated value of z i.e. 1.96. Hence, we accept the null hypothesis (H0) and it is Neutral.
Q2] The calculated z-value is 16.80, which is more than tabulated value of z i.e. 1.96. Hence, we accept alternate hypothesis (H1) and take it positively.
Q3] The calculated z-value is 22.76, which is more than tabulated value of z i.e. 1.96. Hence, we accept the alternate hypothesis (H1) and take it positively.
Q4] The calculated z-value is 9.81, which is more than tabulated value of z i.e. 1.96. Hence, we accept the alternate hypothesis (H1) and take it positively.
Q5] The calculated z-value is 5.16, which is more than tabulated value of z i.e. 1.96. Hence, we accept the alternate hypothesis (H1) and take it positively.
Q6] The calculated z-value is -0.88, which is in the range of 1.96 & -1.96. Hence, we accept null hypothesis (H0) and it is Neutral.
Q7] The calculated z-value is 16.45, which is more than tabulated value of z i.e. 1.96. Hence, we accept the alternate hypothesis (H1) and take it positively.
