  1. Write the null and alternative hypotheses for this experiment.
  2. Identify the Type I error in this context.
  1. The error of rejecting the claim that the true proportion is at least 19% when it really is at least 19%.
  2. The error of rejecting the claim that the true proportion is less than 19% when it really is less than 19%.
  3. The error of failing to reject the claim that the true proportion is at least 19% when it is actually less than 19%.
  4. The error of failing to accept the claim that the true proportion is at least 19% when it is actually less than 19%.
  5. The error of accepting the claim that the true proportion is at least 19% when it really is at least 19%.
