Why? b) In this context, what would a Type I error be? c) In this context, what would a Type II error be? d) In this context, what is meant by the power of the test? e) If the hypothesis is tested at the 5% level of significance instead of 1%, how will this affect the power of the test? f) The lawsuit is based on the hiring of 37 employees.
