Question

A plant in Alamo, TN, manufactures complex transformer components that must meet specific guidelines for safety. One such component is constructed to deliver 1,000 volts of electricity. A component creates a critical safety hazard if it absorbs humidity at a level above 3%. Any components that absorb too much humidity will be destroyed. A quality control inspector uses a random sample of components to conduct a hypothesis test with H₀: The humidity level absorbed is 3%, and H_a: The humidity level absorbed is more than 3%. What is the consequence of a Type II error in this context?

The company believes the humidity absorbed is more than 3% when in fact it is not. Correctly functioning components will be destroyed at great expense to the company.

The company believes the voltage delivered is more than 1,000 volts, when in fact it is not more than 1,000 volts. Correctly functioning components will be destroyed at great expense to the company.

The company believes the voltage delivered is no more than 1,000 volts, when in fact it is more than 1,000 volts. The company will sell components that absorb a dangerous level of humidity.

The company believes the humidity absorbed is not more than 3%, when in fact it is more than 3%. The company will sell components that absorb a dangerous level of humidity.
