The formula for avoiding a Type I error is p = (1-α), where α is the level of significance or the probability of committing a Type I error. Option B is the only formula that matches this requirement, with a correctly written formula for p as (1-α)/(1-β), where β is the probability of committing a Type II error. Options A, C, and D are either incorrect or incomplete.
