Let ?1, ?2, … , ?? denote a random sample from a normal population distribution with a known value of ?.

(a) For testing the hypotheses ?0: ? = ?0 versus ??: ? > ?0 where ?0 is a fixed number, show that the test with test statistic ?̅ and rejection region ?̅≥ ?0 + 2.33(?⁄√?) has a significance level 0.01.

(b) Suppose the procedure of part (a) is used to test ?0: ? ≤ ?0 versus ??: ? > ?0 . If ?0 = 100, ? = 25 and ? = 5,

(1) What is the probability of committing a type I error when ? = 99?

(2) What is the probability of committing a type I error when ? = 98?

(3) In general, what can be said about the probability of a type I error when the actual value of ? is less than ?0 ?

Let X denote the GPA of an engineering student at the CPP. It is widely known that, for this population, ?= 0.4. The population mean is not widely known, however, it is commonly believed that the average GPA is 2.9. We wish to test this hypothesis using a sample size of 16 and a level of significance of 0.05. What is the probability of a Type I error for this test? Answer to the two nearest decimal places.

Using a random sample of size 77 from a normal population with variance of 1 but unknown mean, we wish to test the null hypothesis that H0: μ ≥ 1 against the alternative that Ha: μ <1. Choose a test statistic. Identify a non-crappy rejection region such that size of the test (α) is 5%. If π(-1,000) ≈ 0, then the rejection region is crappy. Find π(0).
