7 Leila suspects that a particular six-sided die is biased so that the probability, \(p\), that it will show a six is greater than \(\frac { 1 } { 6 }\). She tests the die by throwing it 5 times. If it shows a six on 3 or more throws she will conclude that it is biased.
- State what is meant by a Type I error in this situation and calculate the probability of a Type I error.
- Assuming that the value of \(p\) is actually \(\frac { 2 } { 3 }\), calculate the probability of a Type II error.
Leila now throws the die 80 times and it shows a six on 50 throws.
- Calculate an approximate \(96 \%\) confidence interval for \(p\).
