Question:

A coin has probability p of landing heads when tossed. A test will be made of the hypotheses H0: p = 0.1 versus H1: p > 0.1, as follows. The coin will be tossed once. If it comes up heads, H0 will be rejected. If it comes up tails, H0 will not be rejected.

a. If the true value of p is 0.1, what is the probability that the test results in a Type I error?

b. If the true value of p is 0.4, what is the probability that the test results in a Type II error?
