Suppose that we wish to test versus where the population

Chapter 9, Problem 171MEE

(choose chapter or problem)

Suppose that we wish to test \(H_{0}: \mu=\mu_{0}\) versus \(H_{1}: \mu \neq \mu_{0}\) where the population is normal with known \(\sigma\). Let \(0<\boldsymbol{\epsilon}<\alpha\), and define the critical region so that we will reject \(H_{0}\) if \(z_{0}>z_{\epsilon}\) or if

\(z_{0}<-z_{\alpha-\epsilon}\), where \(z_{0}\) is the value of the usual test statistic for these hypotheses.

(a) Show that the probability of type I error for this test is \(\alpha\).

(b) Suppose that the true mean is \(\mu_{1}=\mu_{0}+\delta\). Derive an expression for \(\beta\) for the above test.
