Hono Golf is a manufacturer of golf products in Taiwan and China. One of the golf accessories it produces at its plant in Tainan Hsing, Taiwan, is plastic golf tees. The injector molder produces golf tees that are designed to have an average height of 66 mm. To determine if this specification is met, random samples are taken from the production floor. One sample is contained in the file labeled THeight. If the hypothesis test determines the specification is not being met, the production process will be shut down while causes and remedies are determined. At times this occurs even though the process is functioning to specification. What type of statistical error would this be

    Type I error.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The decision to shut the process is triggered by the conclusion that the average height is significantly different from 66 mm.

    This means that the null hypothesis, that states that the average height is not significantly different from 66 mm (μ=66), has been rejected.

    If the null hypothesis is rejected, the error that can have been made is to reject a true null hypothesis, when the process is functioning to specification and the average length is not significantly different from 66.

    This is a Type I error, that happens when a true null hypothesis is rejected.
