Refer to the Trowbridge Manufacturing example in Problem 2-35. The quality control inspection proce- dure is to select 6 items,

and if there are 0 or 1 de- fective cases in the group of 6, the process is said to be in control. If the number of defects is more than 1, the process is out of control. Suppose that the true proportion of defective items is 0.15. What is the probability that there will be 0 or 1 defects in a sam- ple of 6 if the true proportion of defects is 0.15

Answer:

77.64% probability that there will be 0 or 1 defects in a sample of 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each item, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is defective, or it is not. The probability of an item being defective is independent of other items. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

The true proportion of defects is 0.15

This means that p = 0.15

Sample of 6:

This means that n = 6

What is the probability that there will be 0 or 1 defects in a sample of 6?

P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)

In which

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{6,0}.(0.15)^{0}.(0.85)^{6} = 0.3771

P(X = 1) = C_{6,1}.(0.15)^{1}.(0.85)^{5} = 0.3993

P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.3771 + 0.3993 = 0.7764

77.64% probability that there will be 0 or 1 defects in a sample of 6.

Solve this problem T=u+v/2 solve for u
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

<h2>u = 2T - v</h2>

T =  \frac{u + v}{2}

Cross multiply

We have

2T = u + v

u + v = 2T

Move v to the right side of the equation to make u stand alone

We have the final answer as

<h3>u = 2T - v</h3>

Hope this helps you

In a random sample of 1,000 high-school students, 29 percent indicated that they had read the Declaration of Independence at lea
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

c. Ninety-five percent of the time, the percentage of those questioned who have read the Declaration of Independence would likely be between 25 and 33 percent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Margin of error:

"It means the percentage difference of the result above or below the exact value."

i.e. 4 percent of margin error in the question means that the result will be either 4 percent above the 29 percent or 4 percent below the 29 percent.

OR "the result can vary upto 4 percent above or below the 29 percent."

Let me simplify the answer first in number then convert it percent to understand easily.

29 percent of 1000=  (29/100)*1000=290

4 percent of 1000=(4/100)*1000=40

If 290 students had read the declaration of independence at least once with 40 margin of error, then it means the number of students that had read declaration of independence may be 330 or 250

250 is 25% of 1000 and 330 is 33% of 1000, that is why ninety-five percent of the time, the percentage of those questioned who have read the Declaration of Independence would likely be between 25 and 33 percent.
