State the null hypothesis of the problem below. Two groups of honor students are being studied. The researcher is trying to determine if the method of memorization is effective in getting good grades versus a group who does hands on practice.

  • H1: The number of honor students who will get high grades using memorization is higher than the hands on approach.
  • H0: The number of honor students who will get high grades using memorization and hands on approach have no difference.
  • H0: The number of honor students who will get high grades using memorization is higher than the hands on approach.
  • H1: The number of honor students who will get high grades using memorization and hands on approach have no difference.
