acceptance condition= at most 2 batteries do not meet specifications
shipment size=7000
battery percentage in shipment that do not meet specification= 1%
Applying binomial distribution
<h3>P(x)=∑ᵇₐ=₀ (n!/a!(n-a)!)p^a (1-p)^(n-a)</h3>
In this formula, a is the acceptable number of defectives;
n is the sample size;
p is the fraction of defectives in the population.
Now putting the value
a= 2
n=56
p=0.01
=0.56960+0.32219+0.08949
After summation, we get 0.981 i.e. a 98.1% chance of being accepted. As this is such a high chance, we can expect many of the shipments like this to be accepted!
False ....a parameter is something YOU can change, like asking magazines if they are interested in sports, or interested in photography, or something else. So the 12% is a statistic.
