1) what is a type l error?

a. reject h0 when h0 is incorrect

b. reject h0 when h0 is correct

c. do not reject h0 when h0 is incorrect

d. do not reject h0 when h0 is correct

2) What is the chance of making a type I error in the abovetest?

a. 0.050

b. 0.0250

c. 0.0125

d. 0.1000

3. What is a type ll error?

a. reject h0 when h0 is incorrect

b. reject h0 when h0 is correct

c. do not reject h0 when h0 is incorrect

d. do not reject h0 when h0 is correct

4.  What value would the sample mean have to begreater than to reject Ho? (answer must be 3dp)

5.  It is unknown to the technician making the test,but the real value of µ=22.
What is the probability that a Type II error occurs?
