Answer:

a) the mean percentage of defective item produced is 2.52 %

b) the standard deviation of percentage of defective item produced is 1.01%

       

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

the percentage of defective items produced was 2%, 1.4%, 4%, 3%, 2.2%.

sample size n = 5

a) Calculate the mean for these data

mean percentage of defective item produced will be;

x^{bar} = ∑x / n

x^{bar} = ∑x / n = ( 2% + 1.4% + 4% + 3% + 2.2% ) / 5

x^{bar}  = 12.6 / 5

x^{bar}  = 2.52 %

Therefore, the mean percentage of defective item produced is 2.52 %

b) Calculate the standard deviation for these data

Formula for standard deviation is;

S = √( (∑(x-x^{bar} )²) / (n-1) )

so we make a table;

x                   ( x - x^{bar} )%                ( x - x^{bar} )²%

2%                 -0.52                         0.2704

1.4%               -1.12                           1.2544

4%                  1.48                          2.1904  

3%                  0.48                         0.2304

2.2%.             -0.32                         0.1024

summation                                     4.048

so (∑(x-x^{bar} )² = 4.048%  

so we substitute the value into our equation;

S = √( (∑(x-x^{bar} )²) / (n-1) )

S = √( (4.048%) / (5-1) )

S = √( 4.048% / 4 )

S = √( 1.0121

S =  1.00598 % ≈ 1.01%

Therefore, the standard deviation of percentage of defective item produced is 1.01%

Sever21 [200]
I think you forgot to give the options along with this question. Based on my research and knowledge, i am answering the question and hope that the answer comes to your help. Zero correlation is the one that actually describes this situation correctly as "x" and "y" do not have any kind of relationship. I hope the answer comes to your help.

PLEASE HELP!!!!! Geometry
barxatty [35]

Answer:

53°

Step-by-step explanation:

i will use ∩ to represent arc since there is no arc sign

if ∩EF = 34, then ∡EFC = 34

think of EFC as an angle in the larger circle

since EFC = 34, ABC = 34 because they are opposite angles and opposite angles are always congruent.

ABD = AB + BD = 19 + 34 = 53
