Question

A manufacturer of nickel-hydrogen batteries randomly selects 100 nickel plates for test cells, cycles them a specified number of times, and determines that 14 of the plates have blistered. If it is really the case that 15% of all plates blister under these circumstances and a sample size of 100 is used, how likely is it that the null hypothesis of part (a) will not be rejected (to 4 decimal places). (The probability of making a type 2 error when the true value of p = 0.15)A manufacturer of nickel-hydrogen batteries randomly selects 100 nickel plates for test cells, cycles them a specified number of times, and determines that 14 of the plates have blistered.
