Let f be the height of the fir trees
Let p be the height of the pine trees

We know from the problem that
f + p = 21  and 4f = 24 + p
rearrange the 2nd equation to get p = 4f - 24 and substitute into the other equation

so...
f + 4f - 24 = 21
5f - 24 = 21
5f = 45
f = 9 - height of the fir tree

substitute back into the 1st equation
9 + p = 21
p = 12 - height of the pine tree

Elodia [21]

Answer:

Type I error.

Step-by-step explanation:

The decision to shut the process is triggered by the conclusion that the average height is significantly different from 66 mm.

This means that the null hypothesis, that states that the average height is not significantly different from 66 mm (μ=66), has been rejected.

If the null hypothesis is rejected, the error that can have been made is to reject a true null hypothesis, when the process is functioning to specification and the average length is not significantly different from 66.

This is a Type I error, that happens when a true null hypothesis is rejected.
