If the null hypothesis of an experiment is “the true mean weight of the geese is greater than 40 pounds” what is the alternate hypothesis?

The true average weight of geese is less than or equal to 40 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis are two mutually exclusive statements or hypotheses that are made about a population. The purpose is to find out if, through a study of the data, sufficient evidence is obtained to reject one and accept another

The null hypothesis is denoted as and the alternative hypothesis as

As they are two mutually exclusive statements then if

: The true average weight of the geese is greater than 40 pounds

the alternative hypothesis must be the opposite of the null hypothesis

: The true average weight of geese is less than or equal to 40 pounds
