Answer:

Margin of Error = 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Using this formula Z (s/√n)

Where

S = 1.8----------------------------- Standard Deviation

n = 36 ----------------------------------Number of observation

Z = 1.645 ------------------------------The chosen Z-value from the confidence table below

Confidence Interval || Z

80%. || 1.282

85% || 1.440

90%. || 1.645

95%. || 1.960

99%. || 2.576

99.5% || 2.807

99.9%. || 3.291

Substituting these values in the formula

Margin of Error = 1.645 * (1.8/√36)

Margin of Error = 1.645 * (1.8/6)

Margin of Error = 1.645 * 0.3

Margin of Error = 0.4935

Margin of Error = 0.5 (Approximated)

The Chocolate House specializes in hand-dipped chocolates for special occasions. Three employees do all of the product packaging
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

given that the Chocolate House specializes in hand-dipped chocolates for special occasions. Three employees do all of the product packaging

Clerk          I           II           III    total

   

Pack      0.33          0.23    0.44 1

   

Defective 0.02 0.025    0.015  

   

Pack&def 0.0066 0.00575 0.0066 0.01895

a)  probability that a randomly selected box of chocolates was packed by Clerk 2 and does not contain any defective chocolate

= P(II clerk) -P(II clerk and defective) = 0.23-0.00575=0.22425

b) the probability that a randomly selected box contains defective chocolate=P(I and def)+P(ii and def)+P(iiiand def)

=0.01895

c) Suppose a randomly selected box of chocolates is defective. The probability that it was packaged by Clerk 3

=P(clerk 3 and def)/P(defective)

=\frac{0.0066}{0.01895} \\=0.348285

Bond [772]
-3 is further away from 0 because if you graph it on a number line, it will show that -3 is one unit further from 0 than -2.
