Max believes people on the highway tend to go over the posted speed limit of 55 mph. He performs a significance test on Hoi N = 55 versus How > 55. What would be a Type Il error in this scenario?

Concluding that people do not drive over the posted speed limit when they actually do

Explanation:

H0 : μ = 55

H1 : μ > 55

The two tyoes of error when testing for statistical significance could be TYPE 1 and TYPE 2 error.

Type 1 error occurs when the Null hypothesis is incorrectly rejected while type 2 error results when the Null value is accepted when it is False.

Therefore, a type 2 error will result if we conclude from the test that people do not drive above the posted limit when in actual sense, people do drive above this limit. With a type 2 error, the null. Hypothesis which ought to be rejected is incorrectly not rejected.

like many students at university, you may be unhappy about the results you attain in exams. you may feel that even with all you are doing there must be something more -- or different-- you could be doing to get better grades. we have all at some time or other heard of that student who only studies a couple of hours for final exams and scores a's every time. we stand in awe of those who seem to breeze through without undue effort and seem to need very little in the way of studying to nail an exam. the reasons for success, in what i think are the vast majority of cases, are less esoteric than many students think: successful students consistently apply a series of productive strategies with view to attaining clearly identified learning and grade goals throughout the academic term.
