Consider the probability that at most 85 out of 136 DVDs will work correctly. Assume the probability that a given DVD will work correctly is 52%. Specify whether the normal curve can be used as an approximation to the binomial probability by verifying the necessary conditions.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Since both [tex]np \geq 10[/tex] and [tex]n(1-p) \geq 10[/tex], the necessary conditions are satisfied.

0.9945 = 99.45% probability that at most 85 out of 136 DVDs will work correctly.

Step-by-step explanation:

Test if the normal curve can be used as an approximation to the binomial probability by verifying the necessary conditions.

It is needed that:

[tex]np \geq 10[/tex] and [tex]n(1-p) \geq 10[/tex]

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that [tex]\mu = E(X)[/tex], [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}[/tex].

Assume the probability that a given DVD will work correctly is 52%.

This means that [tex]p = 0.52[/tex]

136 DVDs

This means that [tex]n = 136[/tex]

Test the conditions:

[tex]np = 136*0.52 = 70.72 \geq 10[/tex]

[tex]n(1-p) = 136*0.48 = 65.28 \geq 10[/tex]

Since both [tex]np \geq 10[/tex] and [tex]n(1-p) \geq 10[/tex], the necessary conditions are satisfied.

Mean and standard deviation:

[tex]\mu = E(X) = np = 136*0.52 = 70.72[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{136*0.52*0.48} = 5.83[/tex]

Consider the probability that at most 85 out of 136 DVDs will work correctly.

Using continuity correction, this is [tex]P(X \leq 85 + 0.5) = P(X \leq 85.5)[/tex], which is the p-value of Z when X = 85.5. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{85.5 - 70.72}{5.83}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.54[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.54[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9945.

0.9945 = 99.45% probability that at most 85 out of 136 DVDs will work correctly.

A small manufacturing company recently instituted Six Sigma training for its employees. Two methods of training were offered: online and traditional classroom. Management was interested in whether the division in which employees worked affected their choice of method. Below is a table summarizing the data.

Sales Quality Operations Total
Traditional 16 10 8 34
Online 35 23 44 102
Total 51 33 52 136

Required:
a. What is the probability that an employee chose online training?
b. What is the probability that an employee is in the Quality division and chose online training?
c. What is the probability that an employee chose online training given that he/she is in the Sales division?

Answers

Answer:

(a) [tex]P(Online\ Training) = 0.750[/tex]

(b) [tex]Pr = 0.169[/tex] --- Quality Division and Online Training

(c) [tex]P(A\ |\ B) = 0.686[/tex] --- Online Training given Sales Division

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The two-way table

Solving (a): P(Online Training)

The total employee is:

[tex]Total = 136[/tex]

The employees for online training is:

[tex]Online\ Training = 102[/tex]

So, the probability is:

[tex]P(Online\ Training) = \frac{102}{136}[/tex]

[tex]P(Online\ Training) = 0.750[/tex]

Solving (b): P(Quality Division and Online Training)

The number of employees that choose quality Division and online training is 23

So, the probability is:

[tex]Pr = \frac{23}{136}[/tex]

[tex]Pr = 0.169[/tex]

Solving (c): P(Online Training | Sales Division)

This is calculated as:

Let:

[tex]A \to[/tex] Online training

[tex]B \to[/tex] Sales division

So, we have:

[tex]P(A\ |\ B) = \frac{n(A\ n\ B)}{n(B)}[/tex]

From the table:

[tex]n(A\ n\ B) =35[/tex]

[tex]n(B) = 16 + 35 = 51[/tex]

So, the probability is:

[tex]P(A\ |\ B) = \frac{35}{51}[/tex]

[tex]P(A\ |\ B) = 0.686[/tex]

Answer:

  they are not collinear

Step-by-step explanation:

A graph shows that a line through points A and C misses point B, so the points are not collinear.

__

If the points are collinear, then the slope of the segment between the first pair would be the same as the slope of the segment between the second pair.

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  m = (-18 -(-4))/(-3 -0) = -14/-3 = 14/3 . . . . slope of AB

__

  m = (6 -(-18))/(2 -(-3)) = 24/5 . . . . slope of BC ≠ slope of AB

The points are not collinear.

_____

Additional comment

With about the same amount of computational effort, you can find the area of the triangle bounded by the three points. If it is zero, then the points are collinear. Here, it is 1 square unit, so the points are not collinear.

Answer:

  = 53(20 +4)  or  =24(50 +3)   or  =(20 +4)(50 +3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Either number can be rewritten as a sum. Typically, the sum will be based on place value: 53 = 50 + 3, for example, as opposed to something like 53 = 26 +27.

The usual method of multiplication taught in grade school makes use of this sort of rewriting.

53 × 24 = 53 × (4 +20) = 53×4 +53×20 = 212 +1060 = 1272

__

Additional comment

We find this easier to multiply as 53(20 +4) than as 24(50 +3) because doubling (multiplying by 2) and doubling again (multiplying by 4) is generally easier than multiplying by 3 or 5.

In grade school, we did this digit by digit, so ...

  53×24 = (3 +50)(4 +20) = 3(4 +20) +50(4 +20) = 3×4 +3×20 +50×4 +50×20

  = 12 +60 +200 +1000 = 1272

A professor has learned that nine students in her class of 35 will cheat on the exam. She decides to focus her attention on ten randomly chosen students during the exam. a. What is the probability that she finds at least one of the students cheating

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{73,331}{75,516}\approx 97.11\%[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that she will find at least one student cheating is equal to the probability that she finds no students cheating subtracted from 1.

Each time she randomly chooses a student the probability she will catch a cheater is equal to the number of cheaters divided by the number of students.

Therefore, for the first student she chooses, there is a [tex]\frac{9}{35}[/tex] chance that the student chosen is a cheater and therefore a [tex]\frac{26}{35}[/tex] chance she does not catch a cheater. For the second student, there are only 34 students to choose from. If we stipulate that the first student chosen was not a cheater, then there is a [tex]\frac{9}{34}[/tex] chance she will catch a cheater and a [tex]\frac{25}{34}[/tex] chance she does not catch the cheater.

Therefore, the probability she does not catch a single cheater after randomly choosing ten students is equal to:

[tex]\frac{26}{35}\cdot \frac{25}{34}\cdot \frac{24}{33}\cdot \frac{23}{32}\cdot \frac{22}{31}\cdot \frac{21}{30}\cdot \frac{20}{29}\cdot \frac{19}{28}\cdot \frac{18}{27}\cdot \frac{17}{26}[/tex]

Subtract this from one to get the probability she finds at least one of the students cheating after randomly selecting nine students. Let event A occur when the professor finds at least one student cheating after randomly selecting ten students from a group of 35 students.

[tex]P(A)=1-\frac{26}{35}\cdot \frac{25}{34}\cdot \frac{24}{33}\cdot \frac{23}{32}\cdot \frac{22}{31}\cdot \frac{21}{30}\cdot \frac{20}{29}\cdot \frac{19}{28}\cdot \frac{18}{27}\cdot \frac{17}{26},\\\\P(A)=1-\frac{2,185}{75,516},\\\\P(A)=\boxed{\frac{73,331}{75,516}}\approx 0.97106573441\approx \boxed{97.11\%}[/tex]

Owens Orchards sells apples in a large bag by weight. A sample of seven bags contained the following numbers of apples: 23, 19, 26, 17, 21, 24, 22. a. Compute the mean and median number of apples in a bag. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

The mean and median number of apples in a bag are 21.71 and 22 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is the arithmetic mean of a set of numbers. In other words, the mean is the average value of all my data.

The mean is calculated by adding all the values ​​and dividing the sum by the total number of values. In this case:

[tex]Mean=\frac{23+19+26+17+21+24+22}{7}[/tex]

[tex]Mean=\frac{152}{7}[/tex]

Mean= 21.71

The median of a set of numbers is the average number in the set, that is, it is the value that occupies the central place of all the values.

The median can be calculated by putting the numbers in ascending order and then:

if the quantity is numbers it is odd: the median is the number in the center of that distribution. if the number of numbers is even: the median is the mean of the two middle numbers.

In this case:

Putting the numbers in ascending order: 17, 19, 21, 22, 23, 24, 26

Since the quantity is odd numbers, the median is the number in the center of that distribution. So Median= 22

The mean and median number of apples in a bag are 21.71 and 22 respectively.

How to do questions 19 and 20

Answers

Answer & Step-by-step explanation:

Using the information given in the question we can form the following 3 equations (in the order of the first 3 sentences)

w = 2h (twice the price)

t = h - 4 ($4 less)

3w + 2h + 5t = 136 (total purchasing and cost)

We can solve all 3 equations for h first, by substituting the first two equations, into the third equations w and t

3(2h) + 2h + 5(h-4) = 136

Simplify

6h + 2h + 5h - 20 = 136

13h = 136 + 20

13h = 156

h = 156/13

h = $12

Using this information, we can solve for w and t

w = 2h

w = 2(12)

w = $24

And finally

t = h - 4

t = 12 - 4

t = $8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]S = \{V,W,X,Y,Z\}[/tex]

[tex]n(S) = 5[/tex]

Required

The probability model

To do this, we simply calculate the probability of each container.

So, we have:

[tex]P(V) = \frac{n(V)}{n(S)} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.20[/tex]

[tex]P(W) = \frac{n(W)}{n(S)} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.20[/tex]

[tex]P(X) = \frac{n(X)}{n(S)} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.20[/tex]

[tex]P(Y) = \frac{n(Y)}{n(S)} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.20[/tex]

[tex]P(Z) = \frac{n(Z)}{n(S)} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.20[/tex]

So, the probability model is:

[tex]\begin{array}{cccccc}{x} & {V} & {W} & {X} & {Y} & {Z} & P(x) & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} \ \end{array}[/tex]
