Let μB = the true cost of an oil change for all BMWs and μT = the true cost of an oil change for all Tahoes. What are the appropriate hypotheses for this test? Check all that apply.

A
H0: μB − μT = 0, Ha: μB − μT > 0
B
H0: μB − μT = 0, Ha: μB − μT < 0
C
H0: μB − μT = 0, Ha: μB − μT ≠ 0
D
H0: μT − μB = 0, Ha: μT − μB ≠ 0
E
H0: μB − μT > 0, Ha: μB − μT = 0
F
H0: μB − μT < 0, Ha: μB − μT = 0
G
H0: μB − μT ≠ 0, Ha: μB − μT = 0

Select all statements that are true when making the decision about a test using = 0.01 versus = 0.05.A test that rejects H0 at = 0.05 will always reject at = 0.01.A test that rejects H0 at = 0.05 will sometimes reject at = 0.01.A test that rejects H0 at = 0.05 will never reject at = 0.01.A test that rejects H0 at = 0.01 will always reject at = 0.05.A test that rejects H0 at = 0.01 will never reject at = 0.05.

Question illustration
A
A test that rejects H0 at = 0.05 will always reject at = 0.01.
B
A test that rejects H0 at = 0.05 will sometimes reject at = 0.01.
C
A test that rejects H0 at = 0.05 will never reject at = 0.01.
D
A test that rejects H0 at = 0.01 will always reject at = 0.05.
E
A test that rejects H0 at = 0.01 will never reject at = 0.05.
