The null hypothesis of this test is that the past p values of X are not helpful to predict Y (X does not Granger cause Y). The alternative hypothesis is that the past p values of X are useful to predict Y (X Granger causes Y). p is the lag length of the Granger causality test and the results of the test depend on the chosen lag…

In this assignment, we will talk about how to build a successful testing program and why it is important to set goals before testing and also why hypothesis test is important.

When conducting a hypothesis test for the difference between two means it’s essentially called a two sample t-test. According to Dr. Mirabella (2011, p. 5-2) states that, “In each case you can conduct a t-test for independent means to determine if a significant difference exists.” Furthermore, we’re conducting this test to see if there is an overlapping or if there is clearly a difference among the GPAs for men and women. In our case we are comparing the GPAs for a sample of men and a sample…
