It is known that screws produced by a certain company will be defective with probability 0.01, independently of each other. The company sells the screws in packages of 10 and offers a money-back guarantee that at most 1 of 10 screws are defective. That is, the package would have to be replaced if greater or equal to 2 screws are defective. What proportion of packages sold must the company replace

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The company must replace 0.0042 = 0.42% of packages.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each screw, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is defective, or it is not. The probability of an screw being defective is independent of any other screw. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

It is known that screws produced by a certain company will be defective with probability 0.01.

This means that [tex]p = 0.01[/tex]

The company sells the screws in packages of 10

This means that [tex]n = 10[/tex]

That is, the package would have to be replaced if greater or equal to 2 screws are defective. What proportion of packages sold must the company replace?

This is:

[tex]P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2)[/tex]

In which:

[tex]P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)[/tex]

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.01)^{0}.(0.99)^{10} = 0.9044[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.01)^{1}.(0.99)^{9} = 0.0914[/tex]

[tex]P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.9044 + 0.0414 = 0.9958[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2) = 1 - 0.9958 = 0.0042[/tex]

The company must replace 0.0042 = 0.42% of packages.

Whats the Diameter? I really need help understanding this

Answers

Answer:

1.8 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

1) Determine the radius of the base

[tex]V=\frac{1}{3} \pi r^2h[/tex] where r is the radius of the base and h is the height of the cone

Plug in the known values (h=4.2, V=3.6)

[tex]3.6=\frac{1}{3} \pi r^2(4.2)[/tex]

Isolate r; divide both sides by 4.2

[tex]\frac{3.6}{4.2} =\frac{1}{3} \pi r^2\\\frac{6}{7} =\frac{1}{3} \pi r^2[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 3

[tex]\frac{6}{7}*3 =\pi r^2\\\frac{18}{7}=\pi r^2[/tex]

Divide both sides by π

[tex]\frac{18}{7\pi }=r^2[/tex]

Take the square root of both sides

[tex]\sqrt{\frac{18}{7\pi }} =r[/tex]

2) Determine the diameter

Now that we have the radius, to find the diameter, multiply r by 2:

[tex]d=\sqrt{\frac{18}{7\pi }}*2\\d=1.8[/tex]

Therefore, the diameter is 1.8 in. when rounded to the nearest tenth.

I hope this helps!

Answer:

1.8 in

Step-by-step explanation:

we know the equation for the volume of a cone is pi*r^2 h/3=3.6

pi r^2 *4.2=10.8

solve for r

r is about 0.9 so diameter is 1.8 in

An auto assemply worker requires 4 electrical fuses for each vehicle. The supplier of the fuses has informed the plant manager that 5% of all the fuses they produce are defective. Assume that the assembly worker selects the 4 fuses for any vehicle at random and independently of each other. If 2 assembled vehicles are selected at random and independently of one another, what is the probability that both vehicles will have all defective fuses

Answers

Answer:

[tex]3.9 \times 10^{-11}[/tex] probability that both vehicles will have all defective fuses

Step-by-step explanation:

For each fuse, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are defective, or they are not. The probability of a fuse being defective is independent of any other fuse. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

Probability of a vehicle having all defective fuses:

5% of fuses are defective, which means that [tex]p = 0.05[/tex]

A vehicle has 4 fuses, which means that [tex]n = 4[/tex].

This probability is P(X = 4). So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 4) = C_{4,4}.(0.05)^{4}.(0.95)^{0} = 0.00000625[/tex]

If 2 assembled vehicles are selected at random and independently of one another, what is the probability that both vehicles will have all defective fuses?

For each vehicle, 0.00000625 probability of having all defective fuses. For 2:

[tex](0.00000625)^2 = 3.9 \times 10^{-11}[/tex]

[tex]3.9 \times 10^{-11}[/tex] probability that both vehicles will have all defective fuses

Answer:

H0: p ≥ 0.70; HA: p < 0.70

Sample proportion = 0.625

B.)

H0: p ≤ 0.50; HA: p > 0.50

2.35

0.0094

younger workers in Asia feel more fulfilled

Step-by-step explanation:

1.)

H0: p ≥ 0.70;

HA: p < 0.70

The test statistic :

(Phat - p) /sqrt(p(1-p)/n)

Phat = x / n = 75/120 = 0.625

1 - p = 1 - 0.7 = 0.3

(0.625-0.70) / sqrt(0.7*0.3/120)

-0.075 / 0.0418330

= - 1.79

Pvalue FROM Zscore calculator :

Pvalue = 0.0367

α = 5% = 0.05

Pvalue < α ; Reject then Null and conclude older workers in Asia feel less fulfilled than their British counterparts.

B.)

H0: p ≤ 0.50; HA: p > 0.50

Sample proportion, phat = 58% = 0.58

The test statistic :

(Phat - p) /sqrt(p(1-p)/n)

(0.58 - 0.50) / sqrt(0.58*0.42)/210)

0.08 / 0.0340587

Test statistic = 2.35

Pvalue FROM Zscore calculator :

Pvalue = 0.0094

α = 5% = 0.05

Pvalue < α ; Reject then Null and conclude younger workers in Asia feel more fulfilled than their British counterparts
