The statements that are true are:
- The test rejects H_0 at level 5%: Given that the p-value is 0.021, which is less than 0.05 (5%), we reject the null hypothesis (H_0) at the 5% significance level.
- The test fails to reject H_0 at level 1%: Although the p-value is 0.021, which is less than 0.01 (1%), we do not have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis (H_0) at the 1% significance level.
Assume that I run a test with p-value 0.021. Which statements are true? (Choose all that apply.)
There is strong evidence in favor of H_0
There is strong evidence against H_0
The probability of type I error of the test is equal to 2.1%
The test rejects H_0 at level 5\%
The test rejects H_0 at level 2\%
The test fails to reject H_0 at level 1\%

not correct
I apologize for the incorrect response. Let me correct it:
- The test rejects H_0 at level 5%: Given that the p-value is 0.021, which is less than 0.05 (5%), we reject the null hypothesis (H_0) at the 5% significance level. Therefore, this statement is true.
- The probability of type I error of the test is equal to 2.1%: The p-value of 0.021 represents the probability of obtaining the observed data or more extreme results under the assumption that the null hypothesis (H_0) is true. Therefore, the p-value is equal to the probability of type I error, which is 2.1%. Therefore, this statement is also true.
- There is strong evidence against H_0: Since the p-value is less than the chosen level of significance (0.05), we can conclude that there is strong evidence against the null hypothesis (H_0). Therefore, this statement is true.
- The test rejects H_0 at level 2%: Given that the p-value is 0.021, which is greater than 0.02 (2%), we do not have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis (H_0) at the 2% significance level. Therefore, this statement is false.
Please let me know if you have any further questions.

this is also incorrect
I apologize for the confusion. Let me correct my response:
- There is strong evidence against H_0: Since the p-value is less than the chosen level of significance (0.05), we can conclude that there is strong evidence against the null hypothesis (H_0). Therefore, this statement is true.
- The test rejects H_0 at level 5%: Given that the p-value is 0.021, which is less than 0.05 (5%), we reject the null hypothesis (H_0) at the 5% significance level. Therefore, this statement is also true.
- The probability of type I error of the test is equal to 2.1%: The p-value is not directly equal to the probability of type I error. The p-value represents the probability of obtaining the observed data or more extreme results under the assumption that the null hypothesis (H_0) is true. The type I error rate is the probability of rejecting the null hypothesis when it is true, and it is equal to the chosen level of significance. In this case, the type I error rate is 5% since it is the chosen level of significance. Therefore, this statement is false.
- The test fails to reject H_0 at level 1%: Since the p-value is 0.021, which is greater than 0.01 (1%), we do not have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis (H_0) at the 1% significance level. Therefore, this statement is true.
- The test rejects H_0 at level 2%: Given that the p-value is 0.021, which is less than 0.02 (2%), we reject the null hypothesis (H_0) at the 2% significance level. Therefore, this statement is true.
I apologize for the earlier incorrect responses. Thank you for pointing it out. Please let me know if you have any further questions.
