What is:
H0
H1
X

The alternative hypothesis

What is a critical value
The value(s) on the boundary of the critical region
What is the critical region
The range of values of the test statistic that would lead you to reject H0
What is the actual significance level
The actual probability of being in the critical region
How to find high critical value
First value after the one in the table that exceeds 95% (second value to exceed 95%)
How to find low critical value
First value in table that falls below 5%
What is a two-tailed test
The alternative hypothesis is p not equal to k
In a 5% two-tailed test what is the critical percentage on either end
2.5%
