Claim: H0: u =79. H1: u\leq 79

a=0.05

p-Vaule= 0.998

2.If your decision for the hypothesis test you performed for Problem 1 was incorrect, what type of error would it be (Type I or Type II)? Explain what this error means in the context of this situation.

Answer #1

Since the p-value is greater than the significance level, so we should not reject the null hypothesis.

It would be a Type II error.

The probability of not rejecting the null hypothesis that is the population mean is 79, when in fact the population mean is less than 79.
