Multiple Choice

The State Association of Retired Teachers has recently taken flak from some of its members regarding the poor choice of the associationʹs name. The associationʹs by-laws require that more
Than 60 percent of the association must approve a name change. Rather than convene a meeting, it
Is first desired to use a sample to determine if meeting is necessary. Suppose the association
Decided to conduct a test of hypothesis using the following null and alternative hypotheses: $$\begin{array} { l } \mathrm { H } _ { 0 } : \mathrm { p } = 0.6 \\\mathrm { H } _ { \mathrm { A } } : \mathrm { p } > 0.6\end{array}$$ Define a Type II Error in the context of this problem.

• A)They conclude that exactly 60% of the association wants a name change when, in fact, that is not true.
• B)They conclude that more than 60% of the association wants a name change when that is, in fact, true.
• C)They conclude that more than 60% of the association wants a name change when, in fact, that is not true.
• D)They conclude that exactly 60% of the association wants a name change when that is, in fact, true.

Definitions:

Siltstones

Fine-grained sedimentary rocks that consist predominantly of silt particles, smaller than sand grains but larger than clay, often formed in quiet water environments.

Lime Muds

Fine-grained sediments composed largely of calcium carbonate, typically formed in marine environments where organisms such as coral or foraminifera are prevalent.

Carbonate Rocks

Sedimentary rocks, such as limestone, that are primarily composed of carbonate minerals, typically formed in marine environments.

Oxidation

Oxidation is a chemical reaction in which a substance loses electrons, often resulting in rust in metals or changes in rock minerals due to exposure to oxygen and water.
