................... means rejection of hypothesis which should have been accepted.

  • A.Alternative Hypothesis
  • B.Null Hypothesis
  • C.Type-II error
  • D.Type-I error

Answer: D

Rejecting a hypothesis that should have been accepted is a Type-I error.

A Type I error occurs when a true null hypothesis is rejected; its probability is the level of significance, alpha. A Type II error is the reverse: accepting (failing to reject) a null hypothesis that is false.

The null and alternative hypotheses are the statements being tested, not errors in deciding between them.
