Answer:

Explanation:

For independent variables X and Y;

S.D(X - Y) is expanded as :

S.D(X) + S.D(Y)

If S.D(X) = 6 and S.D(Y) = 8 ; where, X and Y are independent ;

SD(X-Y) = SD(X) + SD(Y)

SD(X - Y) = 6 + 8

SD(X - Y) = 14

company manufactured six television sets on a given day, and these TV sets were inspected for being good or defective. The resul

lana [24]

Sampling distribution involves the proportions of a data element in a given sample.

<em>The proportion of Good TV set is 0.67</em>
<em>The number of ways of selecting 5 from 6 TV sets is 6</em>
<em>The number of ways of selecting 4 from 6 TV sets is 15</em>

<em />

Given

$n = 6$

Sample Space = Good, Good, Defective, Defective, Good, Good

<u>(a) Proportion that are good</u>

From the sample space, we have:

$Good = 4$

So, the proportion (p) that are good are:

$p = \frac{Good}{n}$

$p = \frac{4}{6}$

$p = 0.67$

<u>(b) Ways to select 5 samples (without replacement)</u>

This is calculated using:

$^nC_r = \frac{n!}{(n - r)!r!}$

Where

$r = 5$

So, we have:

$^6C_5 = \frac{6!}{(6 - 5)!5!}$

$^6C_5 = \frac{6!}{1!5!}$

$^6C_5 = \frac{6 \times 5!}{1 \times 5!}$

$^6C_5 = \frac{6}{1}$

$^6C_5 = 6$

Hence, there are 6 ways

<u>(c) All possible sample space of 4</u>

First, we calculate the number of ways to select 4.

This is calculated using:

$^nC_r = \frac{n!}{(n - r)!r!}$

Where

$r = 4$

So, we have:

$^6C_4 = \frac{6!}{(6 - 4)!4!}$

$^6C_4 = \frac{6!}{2!4!}$

$^6C_4 = \frac{6 \times 5 \times 4}{2 \times 1 \times 4!}$

$^6C_4 = \frac{30}{2}$

$^6C_4 = 15$

So, the table is as follows:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}TV&Good&Proportion\\1,2,3,4&2&0.5&2,3,4,5&2&0.5&3,4,5,6&2&0.5\\4,5,6,1&3&0.75&5,6,1,2&4&1&6,1,2,3&3&0.75\\1,2,3,5&3&0.75&3,5,6,2&3&0.75&1,3,4,5&2&0.5\\1,3,4,6&2&0.5&1,4,5,2&3&0.75&2,4,6,1&3&0.75\\2,4,6,3&2&0.5&2,4,6,5&3&0.75&3,5,6,1&3&0.75\end{array}\right]$

The proportion column is calculated by dividing the number of Good TVs by the total selected (4) i.e.

$p = \frac{Good}{n}$

<u>(d) The sampling distribution</u>

In (a), we have:

$p = 0.67$ --- proportion of Good TV

The sampling error is calculated as follows:

$SE_n = |p - p_n|$

So, we have:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}TV&Good&SE\\1,2,3,4&2&0.17&2,3,4,5&2&0.17&3,4,5,6&2&0.17\\4,5,6,1&3&0.08&5,6,1,2&4&0.33&6,1,2,3&3&0.08\\1,2,3,5&3&0.08&3,5,6,2&3&0.08&1,3,4,5&2&0.17\\1,3,4,6&2&0.17&1,4,5,2&3&0.08&2,4,6,1&3&0.08\\2,4,6,3&2&0.17&2,4,6,5&3&0.08&3,5,6,1&3&0.08\end{array}\right]$

I would say A because the author explains on how masculine he looks and how tough he is but then it switches to him showing his affection for his wife and how he is actually soft inside.
Of course I can be wrong but hey I've never took the SAT's before
