A-Level Maths AQA 7357

Understand and apply the language of statistical hypothesis testing, developed through a binomial model: null hypothesis, alternative hypothesis, significance level, test statistic, 1-tail test, 2-tail test, critical value, critical region, acceptance region, $p$-value; extend to correlation coefficients as measures of how close data points lie to a straight line and be able to interpret a given correlation coefficient using a given $p$-value or critical value (calculation of correlation coefficients is excluded).

Conduct a statistical hypothesis test for the proportion in the binomial distribution and interpret the results in context.

Understand that a sample is being used to make an inference about the population and appreciate that the significance level is the probability of incorrectly rejecting the null hypothesis.

Conduct a statistical hypothesis test for the mean of a normal distribution with known, given or assumed variance and interpret the results in context.
