Using a discrete probability distribution, it is found that there is a 0.15 = 15% probability that it will take more than 9 minutes for all the customers currently in line to check out.

<h3>What is the discrete probability distribution?</h3>

Researching the problem on the internet, it is found that the distribution for the number of customers in line at the store is given by:

  • P(X = 0) = 0.2;
  • P(X = 1) = 0.15;
  • P(X = 2) = 0.30;
  • P(X = 3) = 0.20;
  • P(X = 4) = 0.10;
  • P(X = 5) = 0.05;

Hence, since each customer takes 3 minutes to check out, the probability that it will take more than 9 minutes for all the customers currently in line to check out is the probability that there are more than 3 customers, hence:

P(X > 3) = P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) = 0.10 + 0.05 = 0.15.

0.15 = 15% probability that it will take more than 9 minutes for all the customers currently in line to check out.

Answer:

Type I: 1.9%, Type II: 1.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

given null hypothesis

H0=the individual has not taken steroids.

type 1 error-falsely rejecting the null hypothesis

⇒   actually the null hypothesis is true⇒the individual has not taken steroids.

 but we rejected it ⇒our prediction is the individual has taken steroids.

typr II error- not rejecting null hypothesis when it has to be rejected

⇒actually null hypothesis is false ⇒the individual has taken steroids.

but we didnt reject⇒the individual has not taken steroids.

let us denote

the individual has taken steroids by 1

the individual has not  taken steroids.by 0

                            predicted

                              1       0

   actual          1    98.4%  1.6%

                        0   1.9%   98.1%

so for type 1 error  

 actual-0

predicted-1

therefore from above table we can see that probability of Type I error is 1.9%=0.019

so for type II error

   actual-1

predicted-0

therefore from above table we can see that probability of Type I error is 1.6%=0.016
