Correct Answer

Explanation

The correct answer is "Hypothesis Testing". Hypothesis testing is a formal statistical procedure used to make decisions about whether to accept or reject a hypothesis. It involves formulating a null hypothesis and an alternative hypothesis, collecting data, and using statistical methods to determine the likelihood that the data is consistent with the null hypothesis. If the data is unlikely to have occurred by chance alone, the null hypothesis is rejected in favor of the alternative hypothesis. Hypothesis testing is widely used in fields such as science, engineering, and business to make informed decisions based on empirical evidence.
