A manufacturer of Christmas light bulbs knows that 10% of these bulbs are defective. It is known that light bulbs are defective
andriy [413]

Answer:

(a) P(X \leq 20) = 0.9319

(b) Expected number of defective light bulbs = 15

(c) Standard deviation of defective light bulbs = 3.67

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a manufacturer of Christmas light bulbs knows that 10% of these bulbs are defective. It is known that light bulbs are defective independently. A box of 150 bulbs is selected at random.

Firstly, the above situation can be represented through binomial distribution, i.e.;

P(X=r) = \binom{n}{r} p^{r} (1-p)^{2} ;x=0,1,2,3,....

where, n = number of samples taken = 150

            r = number of success

           p = probability of success which in our question is % of bulbs that

                  are defective, i.e. 10%

<em>Now, we can't calculate the required probability using binomial distribution because here n is very large(n > 30), so we will convert this distribution into normal distribution using continuity correction.</em>

So, Let X = No. of defective bulbs in a box

<u>Mean of X</u>, \mu = n \times p = 150 \times 0.10 = 15

<u>Standard deviation of X</u>, \sigma = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{150 \times 0.10 \times (1-0.10)} = 3.7

So, X ~ N(\mu = 15, \sigma^{2} = 3.7^{2})

Now, the z score probability distribution is given by;

                Z = \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} ~ N(0,1)

(a) Probability that this box will contain at most 20 defective light bulbs is given by = P(X \leq 20) = P(X < 20.5)  ---- using continuity correction

    P(X < 20.5) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} < \frac{20.5-15}{3.7} ) = P(Z < 1.49) = 0.9319

(b) Expected number of defective light bulbs found in such boxes, on average is given by = E(X) = n \times p = 150 \times 0.10 = 15.

Standard deviation of defective light bulbs is given by = S.D. = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{150 \times 0.10 \times (1-0.10)} = 3.67

The number a exceeds the number b by 50 percent. By what percent is the number b smaller than the number a?
Julli [10]
50%, because to exceed is to be larger than, so if A is larger than B by 50%, then that means that B is 50% smaller than A.

otez555 [7]
4(2x-4) = 16
4*2x - 4*4 = 16
8x - 16 = 16
8x = 16 + 16
8x = 32 / : 8
x = 4

6. A prism has bases that are equilateral triangles with sides lengths of 10 inches and a length of 30 inches.
eimsori [14]

Answer:

The volume of the prism is 1,299\ in^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of the prism is equal to

V=BL

where

B is the area of the triangular base

L is the length of the prism

we have

L=30\ in

<em>Find the area of the base B</em>

The area of a equilateral triangle is equal to

B=\frac{1}{2}(10)^{2} sin(60\°)

B=25\sqrt{3}\ in^{2}

substitute

V=(25\sqrt{3})(30)=1,299\ in^{3}
