Part A

The probability of making a type ii error is equal to 1 minus the power of a hypothesis testing.

The power of a hypothesis test is given by:

\beta(\mu')=\phi\left[z_{\alpha/2}+ \frac{\mu-\mu'}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}} \right]-\phi\left[-z_{\alpha/2}+ \frac{\mu-\mu'}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}} \right]

Given that the machine is overfilling by .5 ounces, then \mu-\mu'=-0.5, also, we are given that the sample size is 30 and the population standard deviation is  = 0.8 and α = 0.05

Thus,

\beta(16.5)=\phi\left[z_{0.025}+ \frac{-0.5}{0.8/\sqrt{30}} \right]-\phi\left[-z_{0.025}+ \frac{-0.5}{0.8/\sqrt{30}} \right] \\  \\ =\phi\left[1.96+ \frac{-0.5}{0.1461} \right]-\phi\left[-1.96+ \frac{-0.5}{0.1461} \right] \\  \\ =\phi(1.96-3.4233)-\phi(-1.96-3.4233) \\  \\ =\phi(-1.4633)-\phi(-5.3833)=0.07169

Therefore, the probability of making a type II error when the machine is overfilling by .5 ounces is 1 - 0.07169 = 0.9283



Part B:

From part A, the power of the statistical test when the machine is overfilling by .5 ounces is 0.0717.

Options:

A. 1,420 seconds

B. 1,480 seconds

C. 1,500 seconds

D. 1,520 seconds

E. 1,580 seconds

Emily's homework is to read for more than 25 minutes every night.

1 minute = 60 seconds

25 minutes =25\cdot 60=1,500 seconds

more than 25 minutes is more than 1,500 seconds

Options D and E give you times that are greater than 1,500 seconds, options A, B and C give you times that are less or equal to 1,500 seconds.
