With one method of a procedure called acceptance sampling, a sample of items is randomly selected without replacement and the en

tire batch is accepted if every item in the sample is okay. The ABC Electronics Company has just manufactured 2100 write-rewrite CDs, and 60 are defective. If 3 of these CDs are randomly selected for testing, what is the probability that the entire batch will be accepted

Answer:

0.9167 = 91.67% probability that the entire batch will be accepted

Step-by-step explanation:

The CDs are chosen without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x sucesses is given by the following formula:

P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}

In which:

x is the number of sucesses.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

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)!}

2100 write-rewrite CDs, and 60 are defective.

This means, respectively, that N = 2100, k = 60

3 of these CDs are randomly selected for testing

This means that n = 3

What is the probability that the entire batch will be accepted?

Probability of none defective, so P(X = 0).

P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}

P(X = 0) = h(0,2100,3,60) = \frac{C_{60,0}*C_{2040,3}}{C_{2100,3}} = 0.9167

0.9167 = 91.67% probability that the entire batch will be accepted

AACB = ADCE. If<br> AC = 5 and BC = 7<br> CD = [ ? ).<br> PLS HELP LOL PLS
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

CD = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

AC = 5

BC = 7

∆ACB ≅ ∆DCE, therefore,

AC = CD,

BC = CE, and,

AB = DE

Thus,

AC = CD = 5

CD = 5

Can you please solve and explain how
PtichkaEL [24]

If we take 24 h, and think that 150 bolts are produced during 1 hour,

then during 24 hours we will get 150*24 = 3600 bolts.

So, y = 150x represent the number of bolts the machine can produce in x hours.

150 bolts/h, and y =150bolts/h *24 h = 3600 bolts

Answer is B.

All numbers between 1 and 2 are rational numbers explain your choice
anygoal [31]

This is false because \sqrt{2} is an irrational number, despite being between 1 and 2.
