Answer:

Option D

A type I error is making the mistake of rejecting the null hypothesis when it is actually false.

Explanation:

Error type I is usually represented by alpha symbol and type I error entail making a mistake of rejecting the  null hypothesis when it's actually true. Type II error on the other side involves making a mistake of failing to reject null hypothesis when it is actually false. The statement in option D is false because it contradicts the definition of type I error above hence the only false statement in relation to hypothesis testing is option D, A type I error is making the mistake of rejecting the null hypothesis when it is actually false.
