Question

The state of Georgia is considering spending $350 million on a computerized mathematics curriculum that for grades 3 – 10. They pilot the program with 250 students in grades 5 and 6 whose end-of-course test scores are compared to the state average score of 150 to see whether the program has been effective (being more than the average score). If we are testing the Type I error and Type II error in context of the problem is:

Type I error:       ["", "", "", ""]  choices;

The number of students in the pilot is in fact 250 but the state of Georgia reject it wrongfully,,, The math curriculum is in fact piloted with 250 students, but the state of Georgia reject it ,,,The end of course test scores are in fact 150 but the state of Georgia wrongfully state that the program is effective ,,,,The average amount spent is in fact $350 million  but the state of Georgia reject it
 

Type II error:       ["", "", "", ""] choices

The average scores of the graders is in fact more than 150but the state of Georgia did not reject that it is approximately the state average,,,, The math curriculum is in fact not piloted for all 3-10 graders and only considered 5-6 graders,,,,Number of students to be part of the piloting program was in fact more than 250 but the state of Georgia rejected the exact number of students,,,, The amount supposed to be spent is in fact more than $350 million but the state of Georgia only considered 350 million
