Some IQ tests are standardized based on the assumption that the population mean is 100 and the standard deviation is 15. Test graders decide to reject this hypothesis if a random sample of 25 people has a mean IQ greater than 110. Assuming that IQ scores are normally distributed, what's the power of the test if the true population mean is 105?

    0.952

    Step-by-step explanation:

    we know that

    here standard error = std deviation: (n) ^1/2

    =15 / (25) ^1/2 = 15/5=3

    Assuming that IQ scores are normally distributed

    Now, probability of a Type II error

    =P (X<110) = P (Z< (110-105) / 3) = P (Z<1.67)

    =0.952

    the power of the test if the true population mean is 105 = 0.952
