The duration of a voice call is an exponential random variable V with ElV| = fy > 5 minutes. The null hypothesis of a binary hypothesis test is Hy: a call is a data call. The alternative hypothesis is H: a call is a voice call. The probability of a data call is PD] = 0.65 and the probability of a voice call is P[V] = 0.35. A binary hypothesis test measures T minutes, the duration of a call. The decision is Hg if T < ty minutes. Otherwise, the decision is Hf. Design a MAP hypothesis test for when jy = 7 minutes.
