Answer:
0.3968 = 39.68% probability this shipment passes inspection.
Step-by-step explanation:
The parts are chosen without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.
Hypergeometric distribution:
The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:
In which:
x is the number of successes.
N is the size of the population.
n is the size of the sample.
k is the total number of desired outcomes.
Combinations formula:
is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
In this question:
50 parts means that
4 defective means that
10 are chosen, which means that
What is the probability this shipment passes inspection?
Probability that none is defective, so:
0.3968 = 39.68% probability this shipment passes inspection.
Answer:
A sample size of 1031 is required.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of , and a confidence level of
, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
In which
z is the zscore that has a pvalue of .
The margin of error is of:
37% of freshmen do not visit their counselors regularly.
This means that
98% confidence level
So , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of
, so
.
You would like to be 98% confident that your estimate is within 3.5% of the true population proportion. How large of a sample size is required?
A sample size of n is required.
n is found when M = 0.035. So
Rounding up:
A sample size of 1031 is required.
