Question

A statistician wishing to test a hypothesis that students score at least 75% on the final test in an introductory statistics course decides to randomly select 20 students in the class and have them take the test early. The statistician does not have access to Normal tables and decides to use resampling methods and simulation to find the P-value. This approach allows the statistician to calculate an: A. approximate type II error B. exact P-value C. approximate P-value D. approximate type I error.
