Fikile Mathye · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : A, Explanation :  The analogy of hypothesis testing to the U.S. legal system is appropriate because in hypothesis testing, we assume the null hypothesis to be true (innocent until proven guilty) and then evaluate the evidence (data) to see if it is strong enough to reject the null hypothesis (find guilty). Similarly, in the U.S. legal system, a person is assumed innocent until proven guilty and the evidence (presented in court) is evaluated to determine guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
