Let X1, X2, ..., X7 and Y1, Y2, ..., Y9 be two independent random samples from continuous distribution functions F(x - θ) and F(x - μ), respectively, where F, θ, and μ are unknown. Further, let θ be the unique median of F(x - θ) and μ be the unique median of F(x - μ). Let Ri be the rank of Yi in the combined sample for i = 1, 2, ..., 9. For testing H0: μ = θ against H1: μ > θ, the test statistic T = ∑i=19 Ri is proposed. Which of the following statements is true?
- 1Under H0, the probability P(R1 = 1, R2 = 2) = 1240
- 2Under H0, the expected value E(T) is 76
- 3A right-tailed test based on T is appropriate for testing H0 against H1✓
- 4The maximum possible value of T is 115
Correct answer
A right-tailed test based on T is appropriate for testing H0 against H1
