In a research survey in a certain city, a sample of 400 voters are asked if they favor an additional 4% gasoline sales tax to provide badly needed revenues for street repairs. If more than 220 but fewer than 260 favor the sales tax, we shall conclude that 60% of the voters are for it. a) Find the probability of committing a type I error if 60% of the voters favor the increased tax. b) What is the probability of committing a type II error using this test procedure if actually only 48% of the voters are in favor of the additional gasoline tax?
