The owner of Get-A-Away Travel has recently surveyed a random sample of 496 customers to test the mean age of the agency's customers is over 24 . The appropriate hypotheses are H0: μ ⤠24, Ha: μ > 24 If he concludes the mean age is over 24 when it is not over 24, he makes a _error.

Respuesta :

Using error concepts for hypothesis tests, it is found that there is a Type I error.

A Type I error happens when a true null hypothesis is rejected.

A Type II error happens when a false null hypothesis is not-rejected.

In this problem, the null hypothesis is:

[tex]H_0: \mu = 24[/tex]

 

The alternative hypothesis is:

[tex]H_1: \mu > 24[/tex]

He concludes that the mean age is over 24 when it is not, that is, a true null hypothesis is rejected, hence there is a Type I error.
