QUESTION B (EXAMPLE 1) What would be the consequence of a Type II error in this setting? Choose 1 answer: A The club closes the pool when it needs to be closed. B The club closes the pool when it doesn't need to be closed. C The club doesn't close the pool when it needs to be closed.

## Step 1<br />In statistical hypothesis testing, a Type II error is when we fail to reject a null hypothesis that is actually false. This means that we accept the null hypothesis when it is not true.<br /><br />## Step 2<br />In this context, the null hypothesis is that the pool does not need to be closed. A Type II error would mean that we fail to reject this null hypothesis when it is actually false.<br /><br />## Step 3<br />This would result in the club not closing the pool when it actually needs to be closed. This corresponds to option C.
