A statistics student has heard that about
32​%
of the students on his campus attend sporting events weekly. He wants to know if statistics students attend events in the same proportions as the general student body. Explain what the second type of error would be in this case​ (where the student fails to reject a null hypothesis that is actually​ false).
 
A.
The second kind of error would be saying that there is no difference in the attendence of statistics students and the student body as a whole at sporting​ events, even though statistics students actually go much less often.
 
B.
The second kind of error would be saying that statistics students attend sporting events in different proportions than the student body as a​ whole, even though they actually have the same attendence proportion.
 
C.
The second kind of error would be saying that there is no difference in the attendence of statistics students and the student body as a whole at sporting​ events, even though there really is.
 
D.
The second kind of error would be saying that statistics students attend sporting events in much higher proportions than the student body as a​ whole, even though they actually have the same attendence proportion.
