Q6a a) Suppose the manufacturer of a new drug wants to test Ho: 0 = 0.8 versus H: 0 = 0.6where 0 is true proportion of patients cured by the drug. His test statistic is x, the number of20 trials, and he will accept Ho if x >16; otherwise, he will reject it. Find the%3D%3Dcures in n =probabilities of type I and type II errors, a and ß.

We have to find out the probabilities of type 1 error and type 2 error respectively.
