Question 61 of 139

A quality analyst runs a hypothesis test to determine whether a new packaging process changed the average fill weight of cereal boxes. The null hypothesis states the mean fill weight is unchanged. The analyst sets alpha at 0.05 and, after collecting data, rejects the null hypothesis. Later, an independent audit confirms the process actually did NOT change the mean fill weight. What type of error did the analyst make?
