The manufacture of textile assumes that the proportion of orders for late delivery of raw material is p = 0.7. If at most 4 arrived late for a random sample of 12, reject the hypothesis that p = 0.7 in favor of the alternative hypothesis that p < 0.7. Use the binomial distribution. a. Find the probability of committing a type I error if the true proportion is 0.7 and b. Find the probability of committing a type Il error for the alternative p = 0.6

EXERCISE 1.2

The manufacture of textile assumes that the proportion of orders for late delivery of raw material is p = 0.7.
If at most 4 arrived late for a random sample of 12, reject the hypothesis that p = 0.7 in favor of the
alternative hypothesis that p < 0.7. Use the binomial distribution.
a. Find the probability of committing a type l error if the true proportion is 0.7 and
b. Find the probability of committing a type Il error for the alternative p = 0.6
