Answer:
D. 0.9953 (Probability of a Type II error), 0.0047 (Power of the test)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's first remember that a Type II error is to NOT reject H0 when it is false, and the probability of that occurring is known as β. On the other hand, power refers to the probability of rejecting H0 when it is false, so it can be calculated as 1 - β.
To resolve this we are going to use the Z-statistic:
Z = (X¯ - μ0) / (σ/√n)
where μ0 = 1.2
σ = 5
n = 42
As we can see in part A of the attached image, we have the normal distribution curve representation for this test, and because this is a two-tailed test, we split the significance level of α=0.01 evenly into the two tails, 0.005 in each tail, and if we look for the Z critical value for those values in a standard distribution Z table we will find that that value is 2.576.
Now we need to stablish the equation that will telll us for what values of X¯ will we reject H0.
Reject if:
Z ≤ -2.576 Z ≥ 2.576
We know the equation for the Z-statistic, so we can substitute like follows and resolve.
Reject if:
(X¯ - 1.2) / (5/√42) ≤ -2.576 (X¯ - 1.2) / (5/√42) ≥ 2.576
X¯ ≤ -0.79 X¯ ≥ 3.19
We have the information that the true population mean is 1.25, so we now for a fact that H0 is false, so with this we can calculate the probability of a Type II error: P(Do not reject H0 | μ=1.25)
As we can see in part B of the attached image, we can stablish that the type II error will represent the probability of the sample mean (X¯) falling between -0.79 and 3.19 when μ=1.25, and that represents the shaded area. So now we now that we are looking for P(-0.79 < X¯ < 3.19 | μ=1.25).
Because we know the equation of Z, we are going to standardize this as follows:
P ( (-0.79 - 1.25) / (5/√42) < Z < (3.19 - 1.25) / (5/√42) )
This equals to:
P(-2.64 < Z < 2.51)
If we go and look for the area under the curve for Z positive scores in a normal standart table (part C of attached image), we will find that that area is 0.9940, which represents the probability of a Type II error.
Therefore, the power of the test will be 1-0.9940 = 0.006
If we look at the options of answers we have, there is no option that looks like this results, which means there was a probable redaction error, so we are going to stay with the closest option to these values which is option D.
First, illustrate the problem by drawing a square inside a circle as shown in the first picture. Connect each corner of the square to the center of the circle. Since the square is inscribed in the circle, they have the same center points. Each segment drawn to the corners is a radius of the circle measuring 1 unit. Also, a square has equal sides. So, the angle made between those segments are equal. You can determine each angle by dividing the whole revolution into 4. Thus, each point is 360°/4 = 90°.
Next, cut a portion of one triangle from the circle as shown in the second picture. Since one of the angles is 90°, this is a right triangle with s as the hypotenuse. Applying the pythagorean theorem,
s = √(1²+1²) = √2
So each side of the square is √2 units. The area of the square is, therefore,
A = s² = (√2)² = 2
The area of the square is 2 square units.
