A metropolitan city is trying to bring its smog level into federal guidelines and currently
has 12% pollutants per 10,000 volume of air. The city comes up with a new policy
where city employees are encouraged to use city transporta"on to and from work. An
independent agency, hired by the city, runs a test on the air in order to determine if
the new policy has had the desired effect.
The hypotheses are:
H0 : p = 0. 12
H1 : p < 0. 12
Explain the meaning of a Type I error.
Concluding that the smog-level has decreased when it actually has not.
Not concluding that the smog-level has increased when it actually has.
Concluding that the smog-level has increased when it actually has not.
