A presidential candidate claims that the proportion of college students who are registered to vote in the upcoming election is at least 64%. Suppose that we want to sample a number of college students and carry out a hypothesis test to see if this daim may be refuted. State the null hypothesis H, and the alternative hypothesis H, that we would use for this test. H: 0 H: 0 OSO

A manufacturer of hand-held calculators receives large shipments of printed circuits from a supplier. It is too costly and time-consuming to inspect all incoming circuits, so when each shipment arrives, a sample is selected for inspection. Information from the sample is then used to test H0: p = 0.01 versus Ha: p > 0.01, where p is the actual proportion of defective circuits in the shipment. If the null hypothesis is not rejected, the shipment is accepted, and the circuits are used in the production of calculators. If the null hypothesis is rejected, the entire shipment is returned to the supplier because of inferior quality. (A shipment is defined to be of inferior quality if it contains more than 1% defective circuits.) In this context, define Type I and Type II errors. (Select all that apply.) a. A Type I error is obtaining convincing evidence that more than 1% of a shipment is defective when in fact (at most) 1% of the shipment is defective. b. A Type I error is not…
