Resolved: Incorrect questions as per the explanation
1. If we take status quo Ho in testing whether the height is above average or not then :
Ho : my height is above the average height of the classmates. (status quo)
H1/Ha : my height is equal or less than the average height of the classmates. (change/rejection)
2. Similarly,
Ho : The Obama administration issued fewer executive orders than the Bush administration.
H1/Ha : The Obama administration issued atleast as many or fewer executive orders than the Bush administration.
Kindly rephrase the confusing questions/answers.
I agree with what you are saying above. The answers seem incorrect. I am also getting your answers as above. Can any lecturer clarify? This is confusing.
I am still researching, I guess will need to go through multiple examples and other exercises to reach a conclusion, the matter on this course wont suffice, suggesting the same to the readers finding trouble in clarity.
