You choose an alpha level of .01 and then analyze your data.

a. What is the probability that you will make a Type I error given that the null hypothesis is true?

b. What is the probability that you will make a Type I error given that the null hypothesis is false

Solution

probability that you will make a Type I error given that the null hypothesis is true = alpha = 0.01

probability that you will make a Type I error given that the null hypothesis is false = alpha = 0.01
