Question 3.3. Solve the problem.
A hypothesis test is performed to test the claim that a population proportion is greater than 0.7.
Find the probability of a type II error, β, given that the true value of the population proportion is 0.72. The sample size is 50 and the significance level is 0.05.

11. Solve the problem.
For large numbers of degrees of freedom, the critical χ2 values can be approximated as follows:
χ2 = 12(z + 2k - 1)2,
where k is the number of degrees of freedom and z is the critical value. To find the lower critical value, the negative z-value is used, to find the upper critical value, the positive z-value is used.
Use this approximation to estimate the critical value of χ2 in a right-tailed hypothesis test with n = 143 and α = 0.01.
χ2 ≈ 183.411
χ2 ≈ 189.286
χ2 ≈ 188.134
χ2 ≈ 184.549
