Finnegan Arellano · Answer 1

Neither options one or two is true

Step-by-step explanation:

When we test a statistical hypothesis, we must specify a level of significance. It is this level of significance that presents the maximum probability at which we are willing to risk committing a type one error.

Therefore, it is independent of any other level of significance used.

Hence, we conclude that neither options one or two is true.
