Most hypotheses are tested by taking a random sample from a given population, and making a measurement

How it was apply?
Making judgment about a population based on a sample, we could only express it in terms of probability.
Why?
-
Thus, we express this uncertainty in terms of probability
We use sample to make conclusion about the population, but there is uncertainty involved.
It is important to know what probability means to howto compute or assign probabilities to event because probability is the LANGUAGE of inferential statistics
In simple terms,
Probability = chance = likelihood
something would happen
