during a particular period a university's information technology office received 20 service orders for problems with printers, of which 8 were laser printers and the rest are inkjet printers a sample of 5 of these service orders is to be selected for inclusion in a customer satisfaction survey what is the probability that 3 were laser printers

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.2384 = 23.84% probability that 3 were laser printers.

Step-by-step explanation:

The printers will be chosen without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

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

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

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:

[tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

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

In this question:

20 orders means that [tex]N = 8[/tex]

8 were laser printers, which means that [tex]k = 8[/tex]

Sample of 5 means that [tex]n = 5[/tex]

What is the probability that 3 were laser printers?

This is P(X = 3).

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

[tex]P(X = 3) = h(3,20,5,8) = \frac{C_{8,3}*C_{12,2}}{C_{20,5}} = 0.2384[/tex]

0.2384 = 23.84% probability that 3 were laser printers.

Suppose we want to formulate a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion and we would like our margin of error to be not greater than 0.04. We have no history with this characteristic, so we have no idea as to what the proportion might be. Conservatively, what is the minimum sample size we should anticipate using? (NOTE: Round up to the nearest whole number)

Answers

Answer:

The minimum sample size we should anticipate using is 601.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

We have no history with this characteristic, so we have no idea as to what the proportion might be.

This means that we use [tex]\pi = 0.5[/tex], which is when the largest sample size will be needed.

95% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].

What is the minimum sample size we should anticipate using?

This is n for which M = 0.04. So

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.04 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.04\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.5[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*0.5}{0.04}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96*0.5}{0.04})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 600.25[/tex]

Rounding up, 601

The minimum sample size we should anticipate using is 601.

Patty purchased rose bushes and geraniums for her yard. Patty spent $206 on 14
rose bushes and 12 geraniums. The price of a geranium is $5 less than twice the
cost of a rose bush. What is the cost of one rose bush?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  $7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let r and g represent the costs of a rose bush and a geranium, respectively. The given relations are ...

  14r +12g = 206

  g = 2r -5

Using the second equation to substitute for g in the first equation, we have ...

  14r +12(2r -5) = 206

  38r -60 = 206

  38r = 266

  r = 266/38 = 7

The cost of one rose bush is $7.

Answers

Answer:

x =16, y = 151.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since angle 3/5y and angle 12 and angle 42 lies on the same straight line,

[tex] \frac{3}{5} y + 12 + 42 = 180 \\ \frac{3}{5} y = 180 - 12 - 42 \\ \frac{3}{5} y = 180 - 54 \\ \frac{3}{5} y = 126 \\ y = 126 \div \frac{3}{5} \\ = 126 \times \frac{5}{3} \\ = 151.2[/tex]

Since angle 3(x-2) , 3/5y and 12 lies on the same straight line and we know what y is,

[tex]3(x - 2) + \frac{3}{5} y + 12 = 180 \\ 3(x - 2) + \frac{3}{5} (151.2) + 12 = 180 \\ 3(x - 2) + 126 + 12 = 180 \\ 3(x - 2) = 180 - 12 6 - 12 \\ 3(x - 2) = 42 \\ x - 2 = \frac{42}{3} \\ x = 14 + 2 \\ =16[/tex]

The diameters of bolts produced in a machine shop are normally distributed with a mean of 5.11 millimeters and a standard deviation of 0.07 millimeters. Find the two diameters that separate the top 9% and the bottom 9%. These diameters could serve as limits used to identify which bolts should be rejected. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth, if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

The diameter that separates the bottom 9% is 5.02 millimeters.

The diameter that separates the top 9% is 5.2 millimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 5.11 millimeters and a standard deviation of 0.07 millimeters.

This means that [tex]\mu = 5.11, \sigma = 0.07[/tex]

Bottom 9%:

The 9th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.09. So X when Z = -1.34.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]-1.34 = \frac{X - 5.11}{0.07}[/tex]

[tex]X - 5.11 = -1.34*0.07[/tex]

[tex]X = 5.02[/tex]

The diameter that separates the bottom 9% is 5.02 millimeters.

Top 9%:

The 100 - 9 = 91th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.91. So X when Z = 1.34.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]1.34 = \frac{X - 5.11}{0.07}[/tex]

[tex]X - 5.11 = 1.34*0.07[/tex]

[tex]X = 5.2[/tex]

The diameter that separates the top 9% is 5.2 millimeters.

which of the following is not a function? ANSWER FAST PLEASE!!!

D. cannot be an f(x)=y function.

Step-by-step explanation:

An f(x) = y function has to have a specific property - there can be only one value for the same x - and the value has to be the same every time.

D. gives us all xs equal to 9, but with different ys - hence it cannot be an f(x) = y function (it could be an f(y) = x function though, but I assume that's not "allowed" under the problem statement).

B has two equal xs, but both times y=0, so it doesn't make it an invalid function.
