4-1 Discussion: Applications of Hypothesis Tests

In your initial post, describe a situation when you thought about the value of a measurement and stated a conclusion about the likelihood that it is true. For example, you may have said that you are very sure that the average time it takes for you to drive to work each morning is less than 30 minutes.

Comment on your classmates’ posts to further discuss the challenges of testing numeric claims. Also discuss how understanding Type I and Type II errors is useful.
