The null hypothesis is that the mean time to get there is 4 minutes against the alternative that it takes less than 4 minutes to get there.
A type I error is when you reject the null hypothesis when the null hypothesis is actually true.
A type II error is when you fail to reject the null hypothesis when the alternative hypothesis is true.
