When circuit boards used in the manufacture of compact disc players are tested, the long-run percentage of defectives is 5%. Let

X = the number of defective boards in a random sample of size, n = 25, so X∼Bin(25,0.05).
Required:
a. Determine P(X=3).
b. Determine P(X≤3).
c. Determine P(X≥4).
d. Determine P(1≤X≤3)..

Answer:

(a) P(X=3) = 0.093

(b) P(X≤3) = 0.966

(c) P(X≥4) = 0.034

(d) P(1≤X≤3) = 0.688

(e) The probability that none of the 25 boards is defective is 0.277.

(f) The expected value and standard deviation of X is 1.25 and 1.089 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that when circuit boards used in the manufacture of compact disc players are tested, the long-run percentage of defectives is 5%.

Let X = <em>the number of defective boards in a random sample of size, n = 25</em>

So, X ∼ Bin(25,0.05)

The probability distribution for the binomial distribution is given by;

P(X=r)= \binom{n}{r} \times p^{r}\times (1-p)^{n-r}  ; x = 0,1,2,......

where, n = number of trials (samples) taken = 25

            r = number of success

            p = probability of success which in our question is percentage

                   of defectivs, i.e. 5%

(a) P(X = 3) =  \binom{25}{3} \times 0.05^{3}\times (1-0.05)^{25-3}

                   =  2300 \times 0.05^{3}\times 0.95^{22}

                   =  <u>0.093</u>

(b) P(X \leq 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)

= \binom{25}{0} \times 0.05^{0}\times (1-0.05)^{25-0}+\binom{25}{1} \times 0.05^{1}\times (1-0.05)^{25-1}+\binom{25}{2} \times 0.05^{2}\times (1-0.05)^{25-2}+\binom{25}{3} \times 0.05^{3}\times (1-0.05)^{25-3}

=  1 \times 1 \times 0.95^{25}+25 \times 0.05^{1}\times 0.95^{24}+300 \times 0.05^{2}\times 0.95^{23}+2300 \times 0.05^{3}\times 0.95^{22}

=  <u>0.966</u>

(c) P(X \geq 4) = 1 - P(X < 4) = 1 - P(X \leq 3)

                    =  1 - 0.966

                    =  <u>0.034</u>

<u></u>

(d) P(1 ≤ X ≤ 3) =  P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)

=  \binom{25}{1} \times 0.05^{1}\times (1-0.05)^{25-1}+\binom{25}{2} \times 0.05^{2}\times (1-0.05)^{25-2}+\binom{25}{3} \times 0.05^{3}\times (1-0.05)^{25-3}

=  25 \times 0.05^{1}\times 0.95^{24}+300 \times 0.05^{2}\times 0.95^{23}+2300 \times 0.05^{3}\times 0.95^{22}

=  <u>0.688</u>

(e) The probability that none of the 25 boards is defective is given by = P(X = 0)

     P(X = 0) =  \binom{25}{0} \times 0.05^{0}\times (1-0.05)^{25-0}

                   =  1 \times 1\times 0.95^{25}

                   =  <u>0.277</u>

(f) The expected value of X is given by;

       E(X)  =  n \times p

                =  25 \times 0.05  = 1.25

The standard deviation of X is given by;

        S.D.(X)  =  \sqrt{n \times p \times (1-p)}

                     =  \sqrt{25 \times 0.05 \times (1-0.05)}

                     =  <u>1.089</u>

Answer:

undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

Horizontal lines have no slope. The line on the graph is vertical, so we can't really tell what slope it is. But there isn't any run and only rise, therefore the slope is "undefined."
