I know what a type 2 error is, but not sure how to work it into the problem

1.A physical education professor believes that exercise can slow the aging process. For the past 10 years, he has been conducting an exercise class for 100 individuals who are currently 50 years old. Normally as one ages, maximum oxygen consumption decreases. The national norm for maximum oxygen consumption in 50-year old individuals is 30 milliliters per kilogram per minute, with a SD of 8.6.If the researcher wants to detect an increase of maximum oxygen consumption of at least 2 milliliters per kilogram per minute, what is the probability of a type 2 error?

a.0.4129

b.0.2483

c.0.9463

d.0.7483

i know the standard error = 8.6/sqrt(100) = 0.86
