Suppose that a random sample of 20 items is selected from the machine. If the machine produces 5% defectives, find the probability that the sample will contain at least three defectives, by using the following methods. (a) the normal approximation to the binomial (Round your answer to four decimal places.) (b) the exact binomial tables (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 0.0618 = 6.18% probability that the sample will contain at least three defectives.

b) 0.076 = 7.6% probability that the sample will contain at least three defectives

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

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

In which [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]

And p is the probability of X happening.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

Normal probability distribution

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

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that [tex]\mu = E(X)[/tex], [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}[/tex].

Sample of 20 items is selected from the machine.

This means that [tex]n = 20[/tex]

5% defectives

This means that [tex]p = 0.05[/tex]

(a) the normal approximation to the binomial

The mean is:

[tex]\mu = E(X) = np = 20*0.05 = 1[/tex]

The standard deviation is:

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{20*0.05*0.95} = 0.9747[/tex]

The probability is, using continuity correction, [tex]P(X \geq 3 - 2.5) = P(X \geq 2.5)[/tex] , which is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 2.5. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{2.5 - 1}{0.9747}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.54[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.54[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9382

1 - 0.9382 = 0.0618

0.0618 = 6.18% probability that the sample will contain at least three defectives.

(b) the exact binomial tables

This is:

[tex]P(X \geq 3) = 1 - P(X < 3)[/tex]

In which

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

In which

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

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{20,0}.(0.05)^{0}.(0.95)^{20} = 0.358[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{20,1}.(0.05)^{1}.(0.95)^{19} = 0.377[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{20,2}.(0.05)^{2}.(0.95)^{18} = 0.189[/tex]

[tex]P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.358 + 0.377 + 0.189 = 0.924[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 3) = 1 - P(X < 3) = 1 - 0.924 = 0.076[/tex]

0.076 = 7.6% probability that the sample will contain at least three defectives

Two forces of 90 newtons and 58 newtons act simultaneously on an object. The angle between the two forces is 57°. Find the magnitude of the resultant, to the nearest 10th of a newton.

Answers

Answer:

131.0 N

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 90 N force is acting a horizontal force on the object

Horizontal force = 90 + 58sin33

Vertical force = 58cos33

∴The resultant force = √(90 + 58sin33)² + (58cos33)²

Lebrun loaned $20,000 to his daughter to help her buy a house. When she sold the house four years later, she paid him the $20,000 along with an interest of $3000. What was the annual interest rate? Round answer to two decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

3.75%

Step-by-step explanation:

Total interest (4 years) - $3000

Annual interest (1 year) - $3000 ÷ 4 = $750

Annual interest rate (1 year) - [tex]\frac{750}{20 000}[/tex] × 100% = 3.75%

Checking:

Interest after 1 year - [tex]\frac{3.75}{100}[/tex] × $20,000 = $750

Interest after 4 years - $750 × 4 = $3000 (Correct)

Answer:

The interest rate was 3.75%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Attention: I am assuming simple interest here since I am not told otherwise.

Knowing Lebrun's interest was a total of $3000 on the $20000 loan, we can safely assume that it was a $750 interest flat fee paid on top of the loan amount dividing the $3000 by the four years it took for them to return the loan.

Dividing the amount of interest, in dollars, by the total amount of the loan and multiplying by 100, you will get the interest rate on the loan:

[tex]\frac{750}{20000}=\frac{75}{2000}=\frac{15}{400}=\frac{3}{80}\\\\\frac{3}{80}*100=\frac{3}{8}*10=\frac{30}{8}=3\frac{3}{4} =3.75\%[/tex]

What is the approximate area inside the rectangle but
outside the semicircle?

Answers

Answer:

128 - 32pi

OR

27.469

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the rectange is 8 x 16 = 128

The area of the semicircle is pi * 8^2 divided by 2

(pi * 8^2)/2

(pi * 64)/2

pi * 32

So the area of the rectangle outside the semicircle is: 128 - 32pi

In approximate form it is: 27.469

Day Care Tuition A random sample of 50 four-year-olds attending day care centers provided a yearly tuition average of $3987 and the population standard deviation of $630. Find the 90% confidence interval of the true mean. If a day care center were starting up and wanted to keep tuition low, what would be a reasonable amount to charge

Answers

Answer:

We have to find the 90% confidence interval for the mean

                 Given sample size  

                        Sample mean  

Population standard deviation  

Here the confidence level is 90% then  

                                                  And  

The 90% confidence interval is  

Here  is the critical value at 0.05

From the tables  

Now the 90% confidence interval is =

                                                                                     =

                                                                                     =(3840.44, 4133.56)

Hence the 90% confidence interval for the mean is (3840.44, 4133.56)

F(x)=x^2+1 what is f(f(x))?

Answers

Answer:

Answer

Find out f(f(x)) .

To prove

As given in the question

f(x) = x² + 1

Now

f(f(x)) = f (x² + 1)

Now find out the value of f (x² + 1).

f(f(x)) = f (x² + 1)

        = (x² + 1)² + 1

Using formula

(a + b)² = a² + b² + 2ab

Apply in the above function

f(f(x)) = (x² + 1)² + 1

f(f(x)) = [tex]x^{4}[/tex] + 1 + [tex]2x^{2}[/tex] + 1

Simplify

f(f(x)) = [tex]x^{4}[/tex] +  [tex]2x^{2}[/tex] + 2

 

Thus the value of  f(f(x)) is: f(f(x)) = [tex]x^{4}[/tex] +  [tex]2x^{2}[/tex] + 2

For a system of equations to have no real solution, the lines of the equations must be parallel to each other. The ordered pair (-1,3) is not the solution of the given system of equations.

What is the System of equations?Inconsistent System

For a system of equations to have no real solution, the lines of the equations must be parallel to each other.

Consistent System

1. Dependent Consistent System

For a system of the equation to be a Dependent Consistent System, the system must have multiple solutions for which the lines of the equation must be coinciding.

2. Independent Consistent System

For a system of the equation to be an Independent Consistent System the system must have one unique solution for which the lines of the equation must intersect at a particular.

The solution of the equation can be found by plotting the equation on the graph. Therefore, the point at which the equation will intersect will the solution of the system of equation.

Since the solution of the system of equation is (-0.6, 0.2), there exists only one single solution for the system of equation. therefore, the (-1,3) is not the solution of the system of equation.

Hence, the ordered pair (-1,3) is not the solution of the given system of equations.
