Describe the 5-Step Hypothesis Test for a particular claim related to your work or life environment. (This should be a test of one-sample mean or one-sample proportion. The test may be based on a large or a small sample. The decision rule may be based on critical values, or on the p-value.) You need to state the claim, defin

A datum (singular of data) may be either a variable or a constant, depending upon the situation. A variable is something that...well, varies, while is constant is just that. Example: In the general population, sex is a variable. In a monastery, it's a constant. Another example: In the general population, monthly pay is a variabl
