I love this lady, I was ready to eat my gun trying to solve this problem, MAN I HATE THESE CALCULATORS. So easy to understand and follow along, thank you!
Alpha is the symbol used for the "significance level", which is the value that the p-value is compared to for determining whether the data provide statistically significant results against the null hypothesis (H_0) in favor of the alternative hypothesis (H_A). More info can be found in one of our textbooks (free to download), such as: - Section 5.3 of OpenIntro Statistics (openintro.org/book/os) - Section 5.3 of Advanced High School Statistics (openintro.org/book/ahss)
This is better covered in the theory video regarding when the normal approximation is reasonable for most situations: ua-cam.com/video/lsCc_pS3O28/v-deo.html For a much more detailed explanation, you can download one of our textbooks (the PDFs are free): www.openintro.org/book/ahss www.openintro.org/book/os
It is a requirement of normality. If the original population is not itself normally distributed, then the condition 'n is greater than 30' is used for justifying the use of normal distribution.

How did you get alpha 0.05?? What does alpha stand for? My instructor doesnt use alpha.

to the point and well spoken. thank you
you're a life saver! thanks
Why at least 30?
