The number of University graduates in a town is
estimated to follow
a Binomial distribution with the probability of success p = 0.6.
To
test the null hypothesis a random sample of 15 adults is selected.
If
the number of graduates in the sample is between 6 and 12
inclusive,
we shall accept the null hypothesis to be p = 0.6, otherwise we
shall
conclude that p 6= 0.6. Use the normal approximation to the
binomial
distribution to
(i) Find β = P(type II error) for the alternative p = 0.5
(ii) Find the power of the test for p = 0.5
