Using traditional methods it takes 98 hours to receive an advanced flying license. A new training technique using Computer Aided Instruction (CAI) has been proposed. A researcher believes the new technique may reduce training time and decides to perform a hypothesis test. After performing the test on 200 students, the researcher decides to reject the null hypothesis at a 0.01 level of significance. What is the conclusion?

We conclude that the new technique reduces the training time that it takes less than 98 hours to receive an advanced flying license.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that using traditional methods it takes 98 hours to receive an advanced flying license. A researcher believes the new technique may reduce training time and decides to perform a hypothesis test.

After performing the test on 200 students, the researcher decides to reject the null hypothesis at a 0.01 level of significance.

Let = mean time to receive an advanced flying license.

So, Null Hypothesis, : = 98 hours

Alternate Hypothesis, : < 98 hours

Here, the null hypothesis states that it takes 98 hours to receive an advanced flying license.

On the other hand, the alternate hypothesis states the new technique may reduce training time that it takes less than 98 hours to receive an advanced flying license.

Now, it is stated that after performing the test on 200 students, the researcher decides to reject the null hypothesis at a 0.01 level of significance. This means we don't have sufficient evidence to support the null hypothesis as our test statistics will fall in the rejection region.

Therefore, we conclude that the new technique reduces the training time that it takes less than 98 hours to receive an advanced flying license.
