A certain manufacturing process yields electrical fuses of which, in the long run
15% are defective. Find the probability that in a random sample of size n=10, fuses
selected from this process, there will be
(i) No defective fuse
(ii) At least one defective fuse
(iii) Exactly two defective fuses
(iv) At most one defective fuse

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

i) 0.1969 = 19.69% probability that there will be no defective fuse.

ii) 0.8031 = 80.31% probability that there will be at least one defective fuse.

iii) 0.2759 = 27.59% probability that there will be exactly two defective fuses.

iv) 0.5443 = 54.43% probability that there will be at most one defective fuse.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each fuse, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is defective, or it is not. The probability of a fuse being defective is independent of any other fuse, which 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.

15% are defective.

This means that [tex]p = 0.15[/tex]

We also have:

[tex]n = 10[/tex]

(i) No defective fuse

This is [tex]P(X = 0)[/tex]. So

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

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.15)^{0}.(0.85)^{10} = 0.1969[/tex]

0.1969 = 19.69% probability that there will be no defective fuse.

(ii) At least one defective fuse

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)[/tex]

We already have P(X = 0) = 0.1969, so:

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - 0.1969 = 0.8031[/tex]

0.8031 = 80.31% probability that there will be at least one defective fuse.

(iii) Exactly two defective fuses

This is P(X = 2). So

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

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{10,2}.(0.15)^{2}.(0.85)^{8} = 0.2759[/tex]

0.2759 = 27.59% probability that there will be exactly two defective fuses.

(iv) At most one defective fuse

This is:

[tex]P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)[/tex]. So

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

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.15)^{0}.(0.85)^{10} = 0.1969[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.15)^{1}.(0.85)^{9} = 0.3474[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.1969 + 0.3474 = 0.5443[/tex]

0.5443 = 54.43% probability that there will be at most one defective fuse.

Consider the probability that no more than 28 out of 304 students will not graduate on time. Choose the best description of the area under the normal curve that would be used to approximate binomial probability.

a. Area to the right of 27.5
b. Area to the right of 28.5
c. Area to the left of 27.5
d. Area to the left of 28.5
e. Area between 27.5 and 28.5

Answers

Solution :

Here the probability that exactly 28 out of 304 students will not graduate on time. That is

P (x = 28)

By using the normal approximation of binomial probability,

[tex]$P(x=a) = P(a-1/2 \leq x \leq a+1/2)$[/tex]

∴ [tex]$P(x=28) = P(28-1/2 \leq x \leq 28+1/2)$[/tex]

                   [tex]$=P(27.5 \leq x \leq 28.5)$[/tex]

That is the area between 27.5 and 28.5

Therefore, the correct option is (e). Area between 27.5 and 28.5

Let x represent the average annual salary of college and university professors (in thousands of dollars) in the United States. For all colleges and universities in the United States, the population variance of x is approximately σ2
= 47.1. However, a random sample of 15 colleges and universities in Kansas showed that x has a sample variance σ2 = 83.2. Use a 5% level of significance to test the claim that the variance for colleges and universities in Kansas is greater than 47.1. Use the traditional method. Assume that a simple random sample is selected from a normally distributed population.
a. Check requirements.
b. Establish H0 and H1 and note the level of significance.
c. Find the sample test statistic.
d. Find Critical Value.
e. Conclude the test and interpret results.

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

The hypothesis :

H0 : σ²= 47.1

H1 : σ² > 47.1

α = 5% = 0.05

Population variance, σ² = 47.1

Sample variance, s² = 83.2

Sample size, n = 15

The test statistic = (n-1)*s²/σ²

Test statistic, T = [(15 - 1) * 83.2] ÷ 47.1

Test statistic = T = [(14 * 83.2)] * 47.1

Test statistic = 1164.8 / 47.1

Test statistic = 24.73

The degree of freedom, df = n - 1 ; 10 = 9

Critical value (0.05, 9) = 16.92 (Chisquare distribution table)

Reject H0 ; If Test statistic > Critical value

Since ; 24.73 > 16.92 ; Reject H0 and conclude that variance is greater.

The weight of an object above the surface of the Earth varies inversely with the square of the
distance from the center of the Earth. If a body weighs 50 pounds when it is 3,960 miles from
Earth's center, what would it weigh if it were 4,015 miles from Earth's center?

Answers

Answer:

weight =48.71228786pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]w = \frac{k}{ {d}^{2} } \\ 50 = \frac{k}{ {3960}^{2} } \\ \\ k = 50 \times {3960}^{2} \\ k = 50 \times 15681600 \\ k = 784080000 \\ \\ w = \frac{784080000}{ {d}^{2} } \\ w = \frac{784080000}{16120225} \\ \\ w = 48.71228786 \\ w = 48.7pounds[/tex]

If a body weighs 50 pounds when it is 3,960 miles from Earth's center, it would weigh approximately 48.547 pounds if it were 4,015 miles from Earth's center, according to the inverse square law formula.

We know the inverse square law formula:

W₁ / W₂ = D²₂ / D²₁

Where W₁ is the weight of the body at the initial distance D₁, and W₂ is the weight at the final distance D₂.

So we have,

W₁ = 50

D₁  = 3,960

D₂  = 4015

We know that the body weighs 50 pounds when it is 3,960 miles from Earth's center,

So we can plug in those values as follows:

50 / W₂ = (4,015)²/ (3,960)²

To solve for W₂, we can cross-multiply and simplify as follows:

W₂ = 50 x (3,960)² / (4,015)²

W₂ = 50 x 15,681,600 / 16,120,225

W₂ = 48.547 pounds (rounded to three decimal places)

Therefore, if the body were 4,015 miles from Earth's center, it would weigh approximately 48.547 pounds.

When adding two fractions with different bases (bottom numbers), we can use this function:

[tex]\frac{a}{b} + \frac{c}{d} = \frac{ad + cb}{bd}[/tex]

So, to apply this to the given question:

[tex]\frac{x+3}{x-6} +\frac{1}{x-2}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{(x+3)(x-2)+(1)(x-6)}{(x-6)(x-2)}[/tex]

From the given answers, we see we don't need to simplify the resulting base number, which makes things a lot easier.

Multiply top using: (a + b)(c + d) = ac + ad + bc + bd
