Reference no: EM13111748

Prepare a three-paragraph discussion of the relationship between p-value, test statistic, level of significance, and critical value. Allot one paragraph for each term. Discuss p-values for two sided and one-sided tests. Provide an example for tests using Z, Student-t, and Chi-squared. Provide equations for each when possible and discuss how these terms help with hypothesis decisions.
