A company generally purchases large lots of a certain kind of electronic device. A method is used that rejects a lot if 4 or more defective units are found in a random sample of 100 units. ​(a) What is the probability of rejecting a lot that is ​3% ​defective? ​(b) What is the probability of accepting a lot that is ​4% ​defective?

Answers

Answer 1

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a:

a) 0.3526 = 35.26% probability of rejecting a lot that is 3% defective.

b) 0.4295 = 42.95% probability of accepting a lot that is 4% defective.

For each device, there are only two possible outcomes, either it is defective, or it is not. The probability of a device being defective is independent of any other device, hence the binomial distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

The parameters are:

x is the number of successes. n is the number of trials. p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

In this problem, the sample has 100 units, hence [tex]n = 100[/tex].

Item a:

3% of the pieces are defective, hence [tex]p = 0.03[/tex].

The probability is:

[tex]P(X \geq 4) = 1 - P(X < 4)[/tex]

In which:

[tex]P(X < 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)[/tex]

Hence:

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{100,0}.(0.03)^{0}.(0.97)^{100} = 0.0476[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{100,1}.(0.03)^{1}.(0.97)^{99} = 0.1471[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{100,2}.(0.03)^{2}.(0.97)^{98} = 0.2252[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{100,3}.(0.03)^{3}.(0.97)^{97} = 0.2275[/tex]

Then:

[tex]P(X < 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.0476 + 0.1471 + 0.2252 + 0.2275 = 0.6474[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 4) = 1 - P(X < 4) = 1 - 0.6474 = 0.3526[/tex]

0.3526 = 35.26% probability of rejecting a lot that is 3% defective.

Item b:

4% of the pieces are defective, hence [tex]p = 0.04[/tex].

Lot is accepted if less than 4 units are defective, hence:

[tex]P(X < 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{100,0}.(0.04)^{0}.(0.96)^{100} = 0.0169[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{100,1}.(0.04)^{1}.(0.96)^{99} = 0.0703[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{100,2}.(0.04)^{2}.(0.96)^{98} = 0.1450[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{100,3}.(0.04)^{3}.(0.96)^{97} = 0.1973[/tex]

Then:

[tex]P(X < 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.0169 + 0.0703 + 0.1450 + 0.1973 = 0.4295[/tex]

0.4295 = 42.95% probability of accepting a lot that is 4% defective.

5(3x+4)−2x=7x−3(−2x+11

Answers

Answer:

x = -47/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify both sides of the equation : 13x + 20 = 7x - 27

Subtract 7x from both sides : 6x + 20 = -27

Subtract 20 from both sides : 6x = -47

Divide both sides by 6 : 6x/6 = -47/6

Answer : x = -47/6

Set Question involving real and natural numbers

Answers

Only two real numbers satisfy x² = 23, so A is the set {-√23, √23}. B is the set of all non-negative real numbers. Then you can write the intersection in various ways, like

(i) A ∩ B = {√23} = {x ∈ R | x = √23} = {x ∈ R | x² = 23 and x > 0}

√23 is positive and so is already contained in B, so the union with A adds -√23 to the set B. Then

(ii) A U B = {-√23} U B = {x ∈ R | (x² = 23 and x < 0) or x ≥ 0}

A - B is the complement of B in A; that is, all elements of A not belonging to B. This means we remove √23 from A, so that

(iii) A - B = {-√23} = {x ∈ R | x² = 23 and x < 0}

I'm not entirely sure what you mean by "for µ = R" - possibly µ is used to mean "universal set"? If so, then

(iv.a) Aᶜ = {x ∈ R | x² ≠ 23} and Bᶜ = {x ∈ R | x < 0}.

N is a subset of B, so

(iv.b) N - B = N = {1, 2, 3, ...}

23518

Step-by-step explanation:

1) the total volume can be calculated as the sum of two volumes (for more info see the picture): V=V₁+V₂, where V₁ belongs to the prisma and V₂ - to the cylinder;

2) V₁=a*b*h; V₁=20*20*37=14800 (m³);

V₂=3/4*(π*r²*h); V₂=3/4*3.1415*100*37≈8717,6625 (m³), note the full volume of the cylinder cannot be included into the result, but 3/4 of its volume;

3) finally, V=14800+8717.6625=23517,6625≈23518 (m³).

Answer:

V = 23518 m3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

For a width of w, the length is 3w and the area and perimeter are ...

  A = LW = (3w)(w) = 3w^2

  P = 2(L+W) = 2(3w +w) = 8w

   Denote the Left Multiplier by  Left_M  

   Denote the Right Multiplier by  Right_M  

   Denote the Left Deniminator by  L_Deno  

   Denote the Right Multiplier by  R_Deno  

Left_M = L.C.M / L_Deno = x

 Right_M = L.C.M / R_Deno = 8

Making Equivalent Fractions :

3.3      Rewrite the two fractions into equivalent fractions

Two fractions are called equivalent if they have the same numeric value.

For example :  1/2   and  2/4  are equivalent,  y/(y+1)2   and  (y2+y)/(y+1)3  are equivalent as well.

To calculate equivalent fraction , multiply the Numerator of each fraction, by its respective Multiplier.

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

3.4       Adding up the two equivalent fractions

Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

When a fraction equals zero :

Where a fraction equals zero, its numerator, the part which is above the fraction line, must equal zero.

Now,to get rid of the denominator, Tiger multiplys both sides of the equation by the denominator.

Here's how:

 7•(x-56)

 ———————— • 8x = 0 • 8x

    8x    

Now, on the left hand side, the  8x  cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.

The equation now takes the shape :

  7  •  (x-56)  = 0

Equations which are never true:

5.2      Solve :    7   =  0

This equation has no solution.

A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation:

5.3      Solve  :    x-56 = 0  

Add  56  to both sides of the equation :  

                     x = 56
