This lesson is a part of the course Hypothesis Testing
The p-value is the probability, computed using the test statistic, that measures the support (or lack of support) provided by the sample for the null hypothesis.
Once we have the test statistic, we look into the z-table to calculate a value greater than or less than that. This will depend on whether it’s a two-tailed or a one-tailed test.
