Every time you conduct a hypothesis test, there are four possible outcomes of your decision to reject or not reject the null hyp

othesis: (1) You don’t reject the null hypothesis when it is true, (2) you reject the null hypothesis when it is true, (3) you don’t reject the null hypothesis when it is false, and (4) you reject the null hypothesis when it is false.
Consider the following analogy: You are an airport security screener. For every passenger who passes through your security checkpoint, you must decide whether to select the passenger for further screening based on your assessment of whether he or she is carrying a weapon. Suppose your null hypothesis is that the passenger has a weapon. As in hypothesis testing, there are four possible outcomes of your decision: (1) You select the passenger for further inspection when the passenger has a weapon, (2) you allow the passenger to board her flight when the passenger has a weapon, (3) you select the passenger for further inspection when the passenger has no weapon, and (4) you allow the passenger to board her flight when the passenger has no weapon.
1. Which of the following outcomes corresponds to a Type I error?A. You allow the passenger to board his flight when the passenger has a weapon.B. You select the passenger for further inspection when the passenger has no weapon.C. You allow the passenger to board his flight when the passenger has no weapon.D. You select the passenger for further inspection when the passenger has a weapon.2. Which of the following outcomes corresponds to a Type II error?A. You allow the passenger to board his flight when the passenger has no weapon.B. You select the passenger for further inspection when the passenger has no weapon.C. You select the passenger for further inspection when the passenger has a weapon.D. You allow the passenger to board his flight when the passenger has a weapon.As a security screener, the worst error you can make is to allow the passenger to board his flight when the passenger has a weapon. The probability that you make this error, in our hypothesis testing analogy, is described by _____.

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>1. A. You allow the passenger to board his flight when the passenger has a weapon.</u>

<u>2. B. You select the passenger for further inspection when the passenger has no weapon.</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

1. Remember, a Type I error in simple words means that the assumption "the passenger has a weapon" (null hypothesis) is <em>actually true,</em> but the airport security screener <em>incorrectly concluded it is false. </em>In other words, he assumed the passenger had no weapon and allowed the passenger to board his flight <u>when he actually did have one.</u>

<em>2. While, </em><em>a </em><em>Type II error </em><em>means that </em>the assumption "the passenger has a weapon" (null hypothesis) is <em>actually false, </em>but the airport security screener <em>incorrectly concluded it is true. </em>In other words, he assumed the passenger had a weapon and selected the passenger for further inspection <u>when he actually didn't have one.</u>

Determine the exact solution to the following in radians.
Sloan [31]
3sinx+1=sinx
2sinx+1=0
2sinx=-1
sinx=-1/2
x=sin^-1 (1/2) = 30 = \pi/6 (when finding the inverse, always take the positive value, ignore the negative sign)
x is therefore negative in 3rd and 4th quadrant
Therefore values of x are:
180+30=210 = 7\pi/6
360-3=330 = 11\pi/6
