Probability of making type second error

Reference no: EM1319737

A tire manufacturer produces tires that are believed to have a mean life of at least 25,000 miles when the production process is working correctly. Based on past experience, the population standard deviation of the lifetime of the tires is 3,500 miles. Assume a level of significance for testing of 5%, and a random sample of 100 tires, what is the probability of making a Type II error if the population mean is 24,000 miles?
