To test the hypothesis that a coin is fair(i.e. p = probability of heads = 0.5) by a number of tosses of the coin, we wish to impose the following conditions:(I) the probabilityof rejecting the hypothesis when it is actually correct must be less than 0.05 ,(II) the probability of accepting the hypothesis... 顯示更多 To test the hypothesis that a coin is fair(i.e. p = probability of heads = 0.5) by a number of tosses of the coin, we wish to impose the following conditions: (I) the probabilityof rejecting the hypothesis when it is actually correct must be less than 0.05 , (II) the probability of accepting the hypothesis when actually p differs from 0.5 by 0.1 or more (i.e. p>0.6 or p

According to the requirment, we want the type I error is α=0.05 and also Type II error is β=0.05. The situation is illustrated at the following figure. http://in.geocities.com/myisland8132/yahooknowledge/7009072200679.bmp Let n denote the required sample size and x the number of heads tossed which we rejected the hypothesis p=0.5 Then (1) Area under normal curve p=0.5 to right of (x-np)/√(npq) =(x-0.5n)/0.5√n is 0.025 (2) Area under normal curve p=0.6 to left of (x-np)/√(npq) =(x-0.6n)/0.49√n is 0.05 Note: Actually, we need to caculate the area between (n-x-0.6n)/0.49√n and (x-0.6n)/0.49√n and set it equal to 0.05. But (2) is a good approximation. Notice that by making the type II error in the worst case, we have p=0.6. That means for other values of p which is >0.6 or p
