Question Help When purchasing bulk orders of​ batteries, a toy manufacturer uses this acceptance sampling​ plan: Randomly select

and test 36 batteries and determine whether each is within specifications. The entire shipment is accepted if at most 2 batteries do not meet specifications. A shipment contains 3000 ​batteries, and 3​% of them do not meet specifications. What is the probability that this whole shipment will be​ accepted? Will almost all such shipments be​ accepted, or will many be​ rejected?

Answer:

The probability is P(X  \le 2 ) = 0.9072

The company will accept 90.72% of the shipment and will reject (100 -90.72) =  9.2\% of the shipment , so many of the shipment are rejected

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  sample size is  n =  36

   The  proportion that did not meet the requirement is  p =  0.03

Generally the probability that the whole shipment is accepted is equivalent to the probability that there is at most 2 batteries that do not meet the requirement , this is mathematically represented as

     P(X  \le 2 ) = [ P(X =  0 ) +  P(X =  1 ) + P(X = 0)]

=>   P(X  \le 2 ) = [ [^{n}C_0 * (p)^{0} *(1-p)^{n-0} ] +  [^{n}C_1 * (p)^{1} *(1-p)^{n-1} ] +  [^{n}C_2 * (p)^{2} *(1-p)^{n-2} ]]

Here C stands for Combination (so we will be making the combination function in our  calculators )

So

=> P(X  \le 2 ) = [ [^{36}C_0 * (0.03)^{0} *(1-0.03)^{36-0} ] +  [^{36}C_1 * (0.03)^{1} *(1-0.03)^{36-1} ] +  [^{36}C_2 * (0.03)^{2} *(1-0.03)^{36-2} ]]

=> P(X  \le 2 ) = [ [1 * 1 * 0.3340  ] +  [36* 0.03 *0.3444 ] +  [630 * 0.0009 *(0.355 ]]

=>P(X  \le 2 ) = 0.9072

The company will accept 90.72% of the shipment and will reject (100 -90.72) =  9.2\% of the shipment , so many of the shipment are rejected

worty [1.4K]

Answer: 1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Your outcome, 2H, divided by the total size of the output set. Thus gives you probability 1/12

Multiply the probability of Heads P(x=H | coin) = 1/2 . The probability of 2 P(x=2 | Die) = 1/6. Multiply 1/2(1/6) = 1/12.
