In Statistics, for making inferences or judgement from the data collected, hypothesis is laid, which is nothing but a statement made based on the sample, about the population of interest.
After the experiment is complete, the values are compared with the table values, and inferences are made either by disproving the hypothesis, by accepting the null hypothesis and vice- versa
It means to perform an experiment on your hypothesis (theory) to see if it is correct or not.
The null hypothesis is an hypothesis about some population parameter. The goal of hypothesis testing is to check the viability of the null hypothesis in the light of experimental data. Based on the data, the null hypothesis either will or will not be rejected as a viable possibility.
forming a hypothesis is when you come up with an educated guess.. what you think it may be . testing a hypothesis is when you're testing to see if someone else's guess is right.
Concluding that the hypothesis is correct based on personal beliefs or opinions is not part of testing a hypothesis. Testing a hypothesis involves designing experiments, collecting data, and analyzing results to determine if the hypothesis is supported or not.
examining/ experimenting/ testing/ verifying... it depends on the type of hypothesis to an extent I think.
A hypothesis is a suggestion of a way to explain something. If the hypothesis is tested and confirmed, it can advance to the status of theory. The conclusion of testing a hypothesis will be either that the hypothesis is confirmed, or it is not confirmed.
The purpose of controlling the environment when testing a hypothesis is ultimately to get a reliable result to the study.
Rejecting a true null hypothesis.
You use a z test when you are testing a hypothesis that is using proportions You use a t test when you are testing a hypothesis that is using means

By testing.
A hypothesis is a proposed explanation which scientists test with the available scientific theories. There are four steps to testing a hypothesis; state the hypothesis, formulate an analysis plan, analyze sample data and interpret the results.
the process is to know what they hypothesis means
