Using the binomial distribution, it is found that the mean of X is of 12, with a standard deviation of 3.36.
For each chip, there are only two possible outcomes, either it is defective, or it is not. The probability of a chip being defective is independent of any other chip, hence, the binomial distribution is used to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
Probability of exactly <u>x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability.</u>
The mean of the binomial distribution is:
The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:
In this problem:
- Six percent of computer chips produced by Cheapo Chips are defective, hence
.
- Each month a random sample of 200 chips manufactured that month are taken, hence
Then:
The mean of X is of 12, with a standard deviation of 3.36.

Answer: Choice C
They should be blocked by pain resistance so the subjects are as similar as possible.
============================================================
Explanation:
The process of blocking in statistics is where we group up people in blocks, and each block is determined by a characteristic of some sort. In this case, we're grouping people up by pain resistance level. Those very resistant to pain will be in one group, while those who easily feel pain will be in another block, and so on. It might be effective to have a pain scale and sort people by that.
Blocking is done so that we eliminate unwanted variability. We are testing the effectiveness of the itching cream, so all we care about is if the itch reduces or not. We aren't worried about the levels of pain. However, it says that "Previous studies have shown the effects of treatment may vary based on a subject's pain resistance". So we group up the people by pain tolerance to help eliminate the variability of pain tolerance levels.
This is why choice C is the final answer.
-------------
Extra info:
- Choice A is false because a person's name doesn't have anything to do with if the treatment works or not.
- Choice B is false because we weren't given any info to indicate it being true. It may be true, but we simply don't have enough info to confirm it.
- Choice C is false for similar reasons as choice B.
Answer:
<OMP = 76 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
since LMN is a straight angle, the angles must all add up to 180 degrees.
so 37 + 67 = 104
180 - 104=76 degrees
Answer:
D)6 units
Step-by-step explanation:
the answer is D because since side AB have the same y coordinate then you would have to either subtract or add the x. if one point on x is negative and the other is positive then you would add. but if they were both positive or both negative then you would subtract the x.
