Let $X sim uniform(0,theta)$ we are testing $H_0: theta = 1$ vs $H_1: theta >1$ If we know that we reject $H_0$ if $X>0.9$



(1) find $alpha$, the type I error



(2)Suppose that $theta=1.1$. Find $beta$ the type II error probability



I would appreciate some advise on solving this.



for (1) I thought I could start with.



$alpha=P(X>0.9|H_0)$ Which is the probability of rejecting $H_0$ if $X>0.9$ as given in the problem. Do I use the cdf and integrate?



I honestly don't know how to go from here.

          You're on the right track. The type I error is the probability to reject $H_0$ under $H_0$, so $alpha=P(X>0.9|theta = 1)$.
          Under $H_0$, $Xsim U(lbrack 0,1rbrack )$, so you just have to determine the probability that a $U(lbrack 0,1rbrack )$ distributed random variable to be greater than $0.9$.



          The type II is the probability not to reject $H_0$ when $H_0$ is wrong.
