[Solution Library] Iron Deficiency? The null and alternative hypotheses obtained in Exercise $9.8$ on page 404 are H_0:μ =18mg, H_a:μ <18mg where μ
Question: Iron Deficiency? The null and alternative hypotheses obtained in Exercise $9.8$ on page 404 are
\[{{H}_{0}}:\mu =18\text{mg,}\,\,{{H}_{\text{a}}}:\mu <18\text{mg}\]where \(\mu\) is the mean iron intake (per day) of all adult females under the age of 51 . Explain what each outcome would mean.
- Type I error
- Type II error
- Correct decision Now suppose that the results of carrying out the hypothesis test lead to rejection of the null hypothesis, \(\mu=18 \mathrm{mg}\), that is, to the conclusion that \(\mu<18 \mathrm{mg}\). Classify that conclusion by error type or as a correct decision if in fact the mean iron intake, \(\mu\), of all adult females under the age of 51
- equals the RDA of \(18 \mathrm{mg}\) per day.
- is less than the RDA of \(18 \mathrm{mg}\) per day.
