7 The masses, in grams, of apples from a certain farm have mean \(\mu\) and standard deviation 5.2. The farmer says that the value of \(\mu\) is 64.6. A quality control inspector claims that the value of \(\mu\) is actually less than 64.6. In order to test his claim he chooses a random sample of 100 apples from the farm.
- The mean mass of the 100 apples is found to be 63.5 g .
Carry out the test at the \(2.5 \%\) significance level.
- Later another test of the same hypotheses at the \(2.5 \%\) significance level, with another random sample of 100 apples from the same farm, is carried out.
Given that the value of \(\mu\) is in fact 62.7 , calculate the probability of a Type II error.
