Suppose you want to investigate whether there is a relationship between the gender of college students and whether or not they wear hats in school. What would be your null hypothesis and your alternative hypothesis (in words)? Be sure to label clearly which hypothesis is which.

Question 2

The first two basic steps for conducting a hypothesis test are to: 1) determine the null and alternative hypotheses; and 2) collect the data and summarize it with a test statistic.' What is the third step in the process that allows you to then make a decision?
