Question

W5D2 A researcher asks the question "Is there a relationship between GRE total scores and GPAs in the master's programs in electrical engineering?" The researcher's null hypothesis states, "There is no correlation between GRE total score and GPA from an electrical engineering master's program." The researcher's alternative hypothesis states, "There is a positive correlation between GRE total scores and GPA from an electrical engineering master's program." Are these valid hypotheses for the research question? Why or why not? What other observations can you make regarding the hypotheses and research question?

Explanation / Answer

Yes, given hypotheses is is valid hypotheses for the research question. We can say that score of GRE and GPA is correlated as the student who gets a higher GPA it's obvious that whose score in GRE is also a good.if we want to test the correlation between GRE and GPA.

here, hypothesizes equality v/s one side.

we can also observed the campparition of GRE and GPA. also we can test the independency of the both the result.
