A random sample of 50 units is drawn from a production process every half hour. the true fraction of nonconforming products manu
Naya [18.7K]

solution:

The probability mass function for binomial distribution is,

 

Where,

X=0,1,2,3,…..; q=1-p

find the probability that (p∧ ≤ 0.06) , substitute the values of sample units (n) , and the probability of nonconformities (p) in the probability mass function of binomial distribution.

Consider x   to be the number of non-conformities. It follows a binomial distribution with n   being 50 and p  being 0.03. That is,

binomial (50,0.02)

Also, the estimate of the true probability is,

p∧  = x/50

The probability mass function for binomial distribution is,

 

Where,

X=0,1,2,3,…..; q=1-p

The calculation is obtained as

P(p^ ≤ 0.06) = p(x/20 ≤ 0.06)

         = 50cx ₓ (0.03)x ₓ (1-0.03)50-x  

=    (50c0 ₓ (0.03)0 ₓ (1-0.03)50-0 + 50c1(0.03)1 ₓ (1-0.03)50-1 + 50c2 ₓ (0.03)2 ₓ (1-0.03)50-2 +50c3 ₓ      (0.03)3 ₓ (1- 0.03)50-3 )

=(   ₓ (0.03)0 ₓ (1-0.03)50-0 +  ₓ (0.03)1 ₓ (1-0.03)50-1 +   ₓ (0.03)2 ₓ (1-0.03)50-2   ₓ (0.03)3 ₓ (1-0.03)50-3 )

A company that is selling computer tablets has determined that it regularly makes a net profit of $180 for each computer tablet
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

Considering the prediction of people who will fill out the form and receive the refund, the company should expect its net profit to drop to:

  • <u>$174.6 per computer tablet</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

The benefit per tablet before the rebate program is $180 per computer tablet, however, once the rebate program is implemented, 18% of people who purchase their computer tablet are expected to complete the form and obtain the VISA card, which would reduce the benefit as shown below:

  • 18% benefit from computer tablets = original benefit - refund value.
  • 18% benefit from computer tablets = $180 - $30 = $150

With this we identify that 18% of computer tablets will have a benefit reduced to $150, however, as the remaining percentage of tablets (82%) will still have the benefit of $180, the general benefit must be calculated to have a single value, as it's shown in the following:

  • Overall benefit = Percentage of tablets with reimbursement * Benefit of tablets with reimbursement + Percentage of tablets without reimbursement * Benefit of tablets without reimbursement.
  • General profit = 18% * 150 + 82% * 180
  • <u>General profit = $ 174.6 </u>

By having a $ 30 rebate on 18% of the tablets, the overall benefit drops to $174.6.

A mirror is made of two congruent parallelograms as shown in the diagram. The parallelograms have a combined area of 9 1/3 squar
Vika [28.1K]
Given:
2 parallelograms with an area of 9 1/3 yd²
height of each parallelogram is 1 1/3 yd

Area of parallelogram = base * height

We need to divide the combined area into two to get each parallelogram's base.

9 1/3 = ((9*3)+1)/3 = 28/3

28/3 ÷ 2 = 28/3 * 1/2 = 28/6 yd² or 4 4/6 yd² ⇒ 4 2/3 yd²

Area of each parallelogram is 4 2/3 yd²

4 2/3 yd² = base * 1 1/3 yd

14/3 yd² ÷ 4/3 yd = base

14/3 yd² x 3/4 yd = base
14*3 / 3*4 = base
42 / 12 = base
3 6/12 yd = base
or 3 1/2 yd = base

a) the base of each parallelogram is 3 1/2 yards
b) we can assume that the two parallelograms form a rectangle.
area of a rectangle is length times width.

length is 3 1/2 yds * 2 = 7 yds
width is 3 1/2 yds

Area of rectangle = 7 yds * 3 1/2 yds
Area = 7 yd * 7/2 yd
Area = 7*7 / 2 yd²
Area = 49 / 2 yd²
Area = 24 1/2 yd²
