21. During the last energy crisis, a government official claimed that the average owner refilled the tank when there was more than 3 gallons left. To check claim, 10 cars were surveyed as they entered a gas station. Assume that amount of gas remaining in tanks is normally distributed with a stanc deviation of 1 gallon. Compute the probability of a Type II error if the average amount of gas remaining in tanks is 3.5 (use Alpha=0.05)
